Spring Reset: The Lifelong Addy Free Journey of Learning When to Let Go So You Can Keep Showing Up

Spring Reset: The Lifelong Addy Free Journey of Learning When to Let Go So You Can Keep Showing Up

Happy first day of spring!
A season of new beginnings… and a new season in my Addy Free journey, too.

Addy Free began as the resource I wish I had when I was struggling with Adderall and Vyvanse addiction—and while that mission hasn’t changed, this next chapter is bringing me back to the podcast

In this short episode, I share the evolution of Addy Free, my personal journey in ADHD medication recovery, and why I’m stepping away from hosting weekly meetings.

If there’s one message I hope you take with you, it’s this:
Your recovery comes first.
You can’t truly help others if you’re not in alignment with yourself.

Reflecting on the past few years, the greatest gift has been connection. For anyone navigating stimulant dependency, ADHD medication withdrawal, or life after Adderall, this episode is a reminder that healing doesn’t happen alone.

I also share simple tools that helped me in early recovery:
• Telling your story—you never know who you’ll reach
• Volunteering—reconnecting with purpose
• Walk + talks—building connection through movement

Because at the end of the day:
Connection is the opposite of addiction.

If you're on a journey to live Addy Free, you're not alone
