Hey Kelly

We is the way. I love your our badass kick ass self

So much punch here

I mean clean punch

I’ve been out and sober for a long time

I don’t count it closely as I lost my power fully over powered with my babies

I feel like I’m still recovering from patriarchal systems of power over not of a gender but of the abuses that happen from those hungry for control over women’s bodies.

It’s a journey

I love how you’re rocking it and supporting so many others in the we of it

I’m gonna reach your interview now. Congratulations that is awesome.

"With the emergence of voice, truth outs." Damn I love this line, and this post, Kelly. And your insight about compartmentalizing as a prerequisite for addiction. This RESONATES. I think of my recovery as a 'Great Integration' so your notes here really hit home. The further along I go, the more I realize I'm 'coming together'.... my hair, my clothes, my way of being, speaking -- all of it.

Thank you so much for the shout out to me and Allison D!! I'm honored you read my 1,000 day piece, thank you for taking the time and care!

What a hell of an amazing crew we ALL are!!

Kelly, your post resonated with me on so many levels. Love, love, love when a writer seems to be or rather IS in my "head"! A writer that can describe things so eloquently. Thank you for sharing your beautiful gift!

"From the belly, into the throat, onto the tongue"—a reclamation of self and truth. YES YES YES! I am with you sister.

Oh my, Kelly. “I felt lost. I never felt like myself.

When I left, I still didn’t feel like myself.”
