Recovering what’s lost

Many of us put down a drink or a drug and picked up something else: food, gambling, work, someone else’s chaos. Some of us love a person who is still in addiction. Some of us simply feel that life isn’t giving back what we give it.

If any of that sounds familiar, you may be ready for a second surrender.

Second Surrender is a small, writing-first space for people affected by addiction who are not in an active substance addiction. I’m Jennifer, a grief educator, recovery coach and life coach. For now this is a blog and a way to get in touch. Coaching and grief education will come later.
