Giving Yourself Permission to Accept Yourself

When we’re impacted by addiction, it’s easy to feel ashamed of our actions and their impact on others. Everywhere we turn, it’s as though we’re faced with a reminder of the person we would rather not be, rather than the person we’re trying to become.

Having The Courage of a Lion

As kids, most of us watched The Wizard of Oz. We remember the lion, how he pretended to be fierce when really, he was a coward. He knew he needed to be braver but didn’t know how. What he did know, though, was that he needed courage. Due to this, he went along with some…

Fearless Changing During Addiction Recovery

No matter how difficult the past, we know its story. We know how the movie ends. Why?  Because it lies in the past. What else is unavoidable? Change. No matter how much we desire, anticipate, or don’t expect change, it can be challenging all the same. With no known road ahead of us, we are…
