These moments fill my cup
Published Sept. 30, 2026
As Recovery Month comes to a close, I want to say thank you for being part of our uplifting community.
Many of you joined us at March Into the Light, a beautiful morning of stories, hope and connection. Others stopped by to say hello at our community booths at overdose awareness and recovery gatherings.
I always walk away from these kinds of events really excited about what we do.
Seeing past and current members, meeting new people, sharing resources, it fills my cup.
To those who shared your stories with me, thank you. Hearing about your wellness journeys and coaching experiences is a privilege.
My favorite moments at a community booth have nothing to do with me. It’s the connection and encouragement that happens when a coaching member turns to the person next to them. They say something like, “I do this, and I think you should too.”
I can hear the passion in their voices as they describe the genuine connection they feel with their peer coach.
It’s amazing to see.
Thank you for making me smile. Thank you for believing in what we do. And thank you for sharing your light with others who need it. You never know when it will change someone's life.
