I’m Tara. I am a mother, wife, friend, Sailor, recovering alcoholic and trauma survivor.

I am sharing My Journey through Trauma to Sobriety in an effort to help others who are struggling with addiction and mental health issues. I firmly believe in the power of connection and healing through sharing with one another. My hope for those of you fighting your own private and deeply personal battles is that you can learn to accept yourself and your experiences for who and what they are; that you can find a way to extend yourself the grace and forgiveness necessary to break free of the chains that are binding you. Only then can you begin to summon the courage and strength to take the first steps towards making a positive change for the betterment of your life.
