Individual Recovery. Collective Change.

Support, tools, and community for life, work, and civic engagement.

What This Work Offers

Recovery isn’t just for addiction or crisis. It offers a pathway to self-awareness, to release old patterns, and to choose values-aligned action in connection with something larger than ourselves.

These capacities don’t just change individuals. They change how we relate, lead, and participate in our workplaces, communities, and civic life. And when enough individuals shift, systems begin to shift with them.

As the systems we once trusted unravel and the human cost compounds, recovery can help us move out of survival mode, take courageous action, and participate intentionally in shaping what comes next.

The Recovering Human exists at the intersection of individual recovery and social impact—providing support, tools, and community for life, work, and civic engagement, so we can recover our humanity and create a better world together.

If this speaks to you, I invite you to start your journey here.

How to Engage

Why this matters now

We are living through a reckoning. Long-standing systems are unraveling, and the human cost of their shortcomings is impossible to ignore. At the same time, it’s clear that we’ve lost touch with our humanity. For some, compassion and empathy have been actively abandoned or weaponized. For others, they remain present—but buried under exhaustion, fear, and confusion. We see this erosion show up across civic life, in our workplaces, and in our personal relationships.

In response, many of us have adapted in deeply human ways—through survival behaviors like numbing out, overfunctioning, or checking out altogether. These patterns may offer temporary relief, but they ultimately limit our capacity to connect, to imagine alternatives, and to drive meaningful change, both individually and collectively.

In this moment, we have a choice: to continue business as usual, or to recover. Recovery is how we find our way back—to ourselves and to each other.
