If you’ve asked yourself that today—or every day—welcome. The world feels upside down. Because it is.

We’re past the point of toxic positivity, miracle routines, and self-help hacks. What we need are tools that actually help us cope, people who get it, and ways to reclaim our humanity.

That’s what The Recovering Human is here for: making recovery practices accessible to everyone—so we can get unstuck and begin building something better, for ourselves and for the world around us.

Does anyone actually feel okay right now?

COMING SOON

  • Community

    Recovery isn’t meant to be done alone. We all need support, real talk, and a place to feel seen. This community is that space—a circle of people figuring it out together, sharing honestly, showing up messily, and having a little fun along the way.

  • Guide & Workbook

    A free, self-guided recovery journey for real life. Grounded in recovery principles, this guide offers tools, prompts, and practices to help you reconnect to yourself, interrupt old patterns, and start showing up with intention.

  • Workshops

    I speak about how we unlearn survival mode, reconnect to what matters, and start showing up with more honesty, compassion, and courage. These talks are raw, real, and designed to meet people exactly where they are—no sugarcoating, no perfection—just the truth, and what we can do with it.

  • Coaching

    This goes deeper than working through the guide alone. Coaching offers a personalized space to reflect, unpack what’s getting in the way, and build a path forward—with real-time support, tailored insights, and grounded action planning.

recovery, reimagined

When you hear the word recovery, you probably think of addiction or rock-bottom moments. But the truth is: we’re all recovering from something.

As humans, we’ve built coping mechanisms—numbing, overworking, shutting down—just to survive. And right now, those survival strategies are maxed out. The world feels unstable—socially, politically, economically, environmentally. Most of us are stuck in loops of anxiety, avoidance, or despair just to make it through the day.

Recovery provides a path to break out of those loops. It’s how we step out of survival mode and relearn how to be human—with integrity, compassion, and courage.

The Recovering Human takes the wisdom of 12-step recovery—principles that have been helping people since the 1940s—and reimagines them for today. No dogma. No gatekeeping. Just tools that help you reconnect, regulate, and rebuild.

So you can stop just surviving—and start living, contributing, and creating something better. Together.

A Note From The Founder

Hi, I’m Rebecca. I’m a recovering alcoholic, sober for four years.

During COVID, everything cracked open. I hit my rock bottom, entered treatment, and started working a traditional 12-step program. What I thought would be a last resort turned out to be a turning point.

Recovery didn’t just help me stop drinking—it gave me tools to get unstuck, live with purpose, build community, and contribute to change.

And now, maybe you find yourself struggling—not necessarily with addiction, but with the weight of coping with the world. Maybe you’re saying, “This isn’t working.” And you’re right.

Here’s the truth: there’s nothing wrong with you. Struggling doesn’t mean you’re broken. It means you’re paying attention. The world is messed up, and feeling that is the most human response there is.

That’s why I created The Recovering Human—to share the practices that helped me, and millions of others in recovery, find a way through. Recovery principles that have worked since the 1940s—just reimagined for today.

Addicts have been saying for years that these tools can help anyone. I agree. And right now, they matter more than ever.

This is for you if you’re tired of pretending you’re fine. For you if you know the way things are isn’t the way they have to be.

Recovery starts with you. But it’s not about just you. We carry it into our communities, into how we live, and into the world we’re shaping together.
