Starting over. We in addiction recovery can always reinvent ourselves. We fall down, we get up!

Here we are - Episode 50 of an addiction recovery podcast. Who knew? Some insight into the motivation of recovery.

12 Step study - Many of us come to the addiction recovery community by way of the 12 steps. Here's a look at Step 6, where we begin to look to our happy, successful futures.

Step Five. Where we in addiction recovery trust ourselves, our Higher Power and another person with our deepest secrets - so we may live a happy, sober life!
