THE PERSON BEHIND HAPPY RECOVERY
My journey has taken me from addiction and incarceration to more than four decades of helping others find their way forward. Along the way, I’ve learned that real change starts with connection, honesty, and a little hope.
Happy Recovery is a space to share what I’ve learned, and to remind you that a meaningful, fulfilling life is possible.
