“Hope is the only thing stronger than fear.” 🦋
8 years, and still one day at a time. I spent most of my life hating myself — I can say in the last year, practicing self-love and self-care, practicing the art of saying “no” and advocating for myself has been difficult, uncomfortable, but all the more worthwhile. This whole process - it’s been life-altering, wild, and beautiful. It’s been perfect, messy, and simple. Sending love and positive vibes to my recovery community, it takes a village to help an alcoholic and/or addict get sober. Thank you for sharing your truth with me, for telling your stories, for showing me the way, for helping me look the world in the eye — it is the only reason why I’m still here. It feels good to be seen.
Pay it forward, always. 🖤
