"You don't get over an addiction by stopping using. You recover by creating a new life where it is easier to not use. If you don't create a new life, then all the factors that brought you to your addiction will catch up to you again" - Anonymous

At this point in our journey, we are grateful to have the audience we have and had the ability to reach people struggling with something that we have felt for the last 10+ years. Without going into the hard details, we are facing a roadblock that we talk so much about but are still struggling with how we are feeling and what the next steps may be.

The holidays are difficult for some people anyways, especially with family members who struggle with substance abuse. My hope is that if you're reading this, you truly understand your worth, and that you are loved. Take time for yourself, take time to heal, and appreciate the difficulties that you have overcame. Remember that no matter what, your family and those around you want you to succeed.

We will be posting again soon and sharing more with you as time progresses. Until then, keep taking it one day at a time my friends.

With love,

The Final Fix Crew

*NEW EPISODE IS LIVE*

One of our biggest roller coaster interviews to date, Jamie Tall has lived through multiple lifetimes worth of difficulty, tragedy and renewed hope. Her resilience and faith has led her to turn around and use her past to help others who are dealing with the same. Words do not do justice to describe a preview of her story, please tune in and listen, you’ll likely be inspired to get out and share some love. We’re humbly thankful that she was able to come share some never before said stories with us and grateful for her openness and dedication to the world of recovery.
