Author Laura McKowen shares her incredible hard-earned wisdom about how to get sober and how to live with dignity, power, and peace. Laura shares: Her gut-wrenching rock bottom moment that eventually led her to sobriety. How healing often begins when we are forced to confront our deepest traumas. The "Bigger Yes" – and why it's not about achieving grand aspirations, but discovering the beauty in simply being who you are. Simple acts of self-care and the importance of stillness for self-discovery. The two fundamental questions everyone needs to ask themselves: "How do I feel?" and "What do I want?" The special vitriol for mothers who struggle with addiction in a culture that tells mothers to drink in countless ways.
