Embracing Life Amidst Loss: Reflections from The Recovery Show

When I recognize that this is what it is, you know, then I can use my tools, I can, I can bring it out in the open and I can say, yeah, I see you, now I'm going to let go of you.
Ever found yourself grappling with loss and wondering how to keep moving forward?
