What our members say
Helping people get well is our most important work. We're honored to support our members as they overcome challenges, meet goals and thrive in whatever ways are important to them.

Ask a coach: Enabling drug use
Q: Am I helping or enabling my child with addiction?
A: When your son or daughter is caught in the grip of substance use, whether it’s marijuana, meth, alcohol or something else, your heart breaks alongside theirs. You want to help. You want to ease their pain. But at what point does helping become enabling?
We can't wait to meet you
We bring a variety of life experiences to our important work. We hope reading about our backgrounds will demystify coaching, introduce our areas of expertise and demonstrate recovery is possible. If you prefer a coach within a certain community that you don’t see represented here, we hope you’ll still consider reaching out. And if you’re comfortable sharing that feedback, we’d greatly appreciate it. We’d love to know what qualities are most important to you and will keep them top-of-mind while hiring new coaches.
