the book

We are all recovering from something.

This daily meditation book is not specifically about any one condition, addiction, or life challenge. This book is designed to help you contemplate and hopefully embrace the notion that you can take charge of your life and heal, regardless of what you are recovering from.

Dawn gets it. These daily affirmations are full of practical guidance, real wisdom, humor, and grace. A tremendous resource for women in recovery.
