Recovery Doesn't End with Sobriety

It’s Where the Real Work Begins

Martha's Story On Recovery

Martha doesn’t talk about addiction and recovery as an outside observer. She’s lived it. That’s part of why, when she stands up in front of a room, people listen differently not to someone lecturing them, but to someone who’s actually been where they are.
Every week, Martha visits jails, treatment centers, and recovery communities near her, not as a one-time guest speaker but as a steady, familiar presence. She’s there for the follow-up conversations as much as the big talks because she knows recovery isn’t a single moment; it’s hundreds of small ones.

Martha is a great speaker. I enjoyed every minute of her presentation. She reminded us to be patient and act responsibly. She brings a lot of joy when she speaks.

J.A.

Martha’s presentation was great. How she has changed her life is inspiring. She had the best stories that relate to my life. She gave information I can start using right away to improve my life and relationships.

A.M.

I feel encouraged that my past does not have to ruin my future. I can still go for my goals and dreams and be the father and grandfather my family needs. I can change and be a good example starting now. She showed me how I can challenge my negative thoughts. Just because I think it doesn’t mean it is true.
