Overview:

Imagine being as outrageously yourself as you can possibly be...in recovery!

Imagine laughing more and loving more, pursuing your own dream...while in recovery!

Imagine letting go of all your excuses to not feel good...and be in recovery!

Imagine giving up all addictions and habits that deny your feelings!

In this workshop presented by Theo Carroll and Theresa Wright, you will identify "stories" - defining moments, relationships, turning points - that shape how you see yourself today. Theo and Theresa will then help you to "re-author" your past stories and use them to transform your life. These "stories" and how you "rewrite" them in this workshop will be the building blocks for future experience and a life in recovery.
