Wow with all the madness we nearly forget to post this awesome podcast with the inspiring @arsmomma16 Here we talk to Christy Smith in Ohio. This episode was was recorded a few weeks ago before the corona news so just wanted to mention that there is absolutely no mention of what’s going on at the moment! Christy talks about her recovery journey from alcohol, heroin and cocaine, to soon becoming an addiction therapist. Christy is open and honest about her journey in this moving and emotional episode. Christy can be reached at facebook.com/the addictsfamily44 or @theaddictsfamily44 This episode could be triggering for some as we touch upon some serious topics for example, sexual abuse, childhood abuse, prostitution, heroin use and drug addiction.

I never liked myself much when I was drinking, infact had I been told I had to isolate myself with myself back then I’d have been devastated. Thank God for sobriety, self care, meditation, self development, self help books, quit lit, IG, sober groups and podcasts they have all helped me become somebody I don’t mind spending time with! How are you all coping? L x

Awww we miss being together! We are so lucky, if this had happened 20 years ago imagine what isolation would have been like then! Thank God for Zoom so we can still make each other laugh! What are you all doing to stay connected? #stayhome

All of us have worries and concerns, especially now. There are lots of things that we are all scared of. Things that we might be dreading. Worries about what “might” happen or what “might not” happen. Truth is there is an endless supply of things to spend our life time being worried about. Worrying is absolutely not going to do anything positive for any of us though and I know this is easier said than done, but please try and not worry about all the “what ifs” and the “what if not’s” let’s take each day, one at a time, it’s all we can do right now just do your very best, we are all in this together and if anyone at all needs a little bit of extra support right now , please feel free to message us. Now is the time to practice gratitude, meditation, get the art sets out, start baking, watch Netflix, home yoga, whatever it is please tell yourself that today you will not drink, some of you have come so far, and we want you to know that we are so proud of you. It is things like this you have been working for! Don’t be sat in counting the days guys, let’s make the time you have count right now, this day. Let’s be grateful for it. Embrace it. And please don’t forget to SMILE 😀 Sending all of you all of our love 💓

Happy Mother’s Day to our Amazing Mums and Happy Mother’s Day to all you amazing mums out there too! Thinking of all those who are remembering their Mums today! Sending love, light and health to all of you 💓

On a lighter note! This is so funny and has kept us occupied on Facebook all morning! Let’s play........ . . So one of my co workers is still in bed, My CEO is nowhere to be seen as per usual and as for my two secretary's one is sprawled out on the dining room floor and the other sat staring out of the window. There is no hope for us getting anything done today 😂 L x One of my co-workers is sleeping and will remain there until lunchtime. Another is sat watching Netflix in what can only be described as sloth pjs. The newest co-worker is currently dressed as sonic the hedgehog and running around the house like a crazy man! The CEO is grunting in our makeshift gym. The two secretaries are having a swim in their tank! All I wanted was a walk! 🤪 A x
