I talk to recovery newbies about how they can develop skills for all of life, by taking control of their recovery plan. Analysis, goal-setting, plan creation, focused implementation, and updating regularly. #addiction #recoveryposse #soberlife

I recommend you don't wait until you're 100% sure you can achieve #sobriety. Start where you are, even if that means you won't be perfect in your efforts. That's what most of those who are successful did. #recoveryposse #addiction

#RecoveryPosse
I like to go to meetings on my city's south side cause I like to listen to my recovery program in the brogue of the alcoholism I grew up in.

Finding beauty in the ordinary moments of sobriety. Each wonderfully ordinary day is a victory worth celebrating. The simple gift of presence, clarity, and peace.

You are a dreamer boy
And I love you religiously
I feel devotion to your journey
I feel the pulse of tantric alchemy

#RecoveryPosse It’s been a long week at the #LittlePascoWareHouse I have been to Oregon on 2 separate occasions and 1 of those trips was to numerous Amazon Data centers, now today is a run to our Spokane branch and back, but it’s Friday.

I started recovery b/c I'd devastated my life on every level and was beyond exhausted and miserable. To stay in recovery, I had to deal with my trauma, take ownership of my recovery plan, and put a lot of effort into #sobriety during the 1st 18 months. #addiction #recoveryposse

I am learning to survive feelings
Gaining the power to trust my mind
There’s beauty in this pain
My transformation, from drunk to wise

Today I am grateful for being able to attend a counter protest against the far right. I feel like we have fascists on our streets and staying silent is not an option. #recoveryposse
