"I recently heard it said that the opposite of addiction is not sobriety; the opposite of addiction is connection. From the moment I entered The Miracle House, I felt welcomed, understood, and loved. I was able to begin to rebuild my life, by first forming connections with the other women in the house.
As I grew in my sobriety, I was able to form new connections to a recovery community, deeper connections to my family and old friends, and a sacred connection to a Higher Power. The Miracle House provided the structure and accountability that I desperately needed after being completely broken by alcoholism.
Further, I found love and support that gave me the courage to grow up. Saying yes to The Miracle House was like saying yes to my life. There I was able to finish my 1st year of graduate school and navigate my new life as a sober woman.
Most importantly, I was able to build an unshakable foundation. By immersing myself in recovery and surrendering to the process, I was given a new way of life, a new way of loving myself and others and new friendships that have carried me through difficult times."
