When I think about a risk, I think of dangerous territory. Risky, will it be good or bad?
I guess the biggest risk I would take is writing and finishing my book and putting it out there for everyone to read, interpret their own meaning or conclusion. It’s risky because it’s a story of my life, my addiction and my recovery. It’s not just about me, it’s about my parents etc.
On the other hand of a risk there’s a rewarding risk, a good risk, and that would be that I could potentially help people by sharing my story that recovery is possible for everyone, no one is special, we all have it in us we just need to ask for help.
Why I haven’t done it? One word. FEAR.

I'm finally sober! My life up until I really got sober was in one word, chaotic! I didn't know what stability was. To top off my mess of a childhood, I went straight into a marriage with more abuse and alcoholism. But, what I have today is who I am, who I've become, I am with an amazing (new) husband, we have 4 kids and our fur-baby.
It has not been an easy road but I can say it was worth every fight and tear it took to get me here.
Sharing my journey with you and my past is not to display it all over the place but to help someone relate to what has happened and where my mind has been while I was drinking and where it is today. Its to give insight to those suffering that if you just keep fighting you can really have the best life you were meant to have.
Let's do this!
