Lastly, she talks about what it looks like for the family now that I am in recovery. I will always be grateful for the steps that she took to help me get sober. Always remember that we are Cardinal Strong and that I Love You More.(Fun Fact: I have two brothers and two sisters, not all were mentioned in the podcast, but they have also been a huge part of my recovery journey as well. I appreciate you all for the endless amounts of love and support you have brought to my life.)

Acceptance isn't the easiest thing to achieve. At first, for us, the concept of acceptance was foreign. We had no idea how to apply it to our lives.

It's finally here; Recovery Captured has launched a podcast! I created Recovery Captured in hopes to make a safe environment for individuals to open up about their journey through recovery. You may be wondering "recovery from what?". Let me be the one to assure you that there is an endless list of chemical and behavioral addictions/disorders that we all are challenged with (personally, family, friends, etc.). Let's be real, we all experience, in some way or another, overuse and/or compulsive behaviors around things that we encounter daily. And, if you are like me, I'm ready to take an action to better myself in all aspects!
