I’m going to use that “ Inner Cheer Leader .” Idea. I have not heard this put this way before . So important.So simple .
Thankyou!!
Edith here, thank you for your kind words community. I celebrated seven years in recovery on July 5th. I love that we can see the similarities in each others stories. Others have inspired me and let me know that recovery is possible. I feel so privileged to be able to do the same for some people. Together, we do recover. 💖
Oh I love this. I love the bit about we can be mad at our parents and that can be juxtaposed with understanding them as well. I also love that your young daughter feels good about herself. That is huge!
Thank you, Edith — I resonated with your story and found some of my own there, too. Thank you!
Thank you for sharing your story.
Thank you Edith for sharing your story. Your story is very similar to mine. You have inspired me so much, similar to how that woman in the meeting inspired you.👏
