Hey everyone…What’s one win from this week so far…big or small? Wins count even if you struggled. Awareness, honesty, and showing up are wins too.

Welcome to the Keep Going Movement! I'm Lynn Ellen, and my recovery journey began on May 8, 2023. To say the last seven years of my life before that were messy would be an understatement. I went from being a housewife with four children and a busy schedule to losing everything to crack cocaine addiction. But that's not where my story ends - it's where my mission began. During my early recovery, I found myself making a simple bracelet with two words that kept pulling me through: "Keep Going." Every time I looked down at my wrist and saw those words, they gave me the strength to push forward, no matter what challenges I faced. Today, I'm a proud mom rebuilding relationships with my four children, including my oldest who didn't speak to me for three years but now has an amazing relationship with me. I get my hair done every Monday (because self-care matters!), and I hand-make and distribute over 300 "Keep Going" bracelets monthly to people who need that same reminder that kept me going. My style is boho, my heart is full of hope, and my mission is clear: to share the message that recovery is possible. I might have seen the darkest sides of addiction, including violence and loss, but I choose to focus on the light of recovery and the promises that come true when you just keep going. Through this community, I want to create a space where we can: - Support each other's recovery journeys - Share the power of the Keep Going message - Create and distribute bracelets to those who need hope - Build a movement of strength and possibility - Show others that recovery is possible Join me every morning for coffee and connection as we build this community together. Whether you're in recovery, supporting someone who is, or just need the reminder to keep going, you're in the right place. Remember, no matter what life throws at you, all you have to do is keep going forward. With hope and determination, Lynn Ellen Founder, Keep Going Movement www.keepgoingwithlynnellen.com

Although the urges of alcohol can be challenging to overcome, you'll eventually find that they decrease in intensity or you'll develop different strategies to deal with them without turning to drinking. Sobriety is a daily journey that demands dedication and perseverance. It starts again each morning and continues throughout the day, without a break or a day off. In the early stages of sobriety, setting small, achievable goals is vital. This might involve breaking down larger goals into smaller, manageable tasks, such as staying sober for a single hour or making it through the day without a slip-up. By achieving these small goals, you'll build confidence and momentum, which will help you stay on track and reach more significant milestones. small sober goals are better then no sober goals and no milestones reached sobriety is a one day at a time just for today all day everyday process Getting sober isn't just about quitting drinking; it's about addressing the underlying disorders and causes of your addiction. Through this process, you learn to heal and repair the damage from past experiences and current situations, ultimately overcoming the problems you created during your addiction's darkest moments. Sobriety not only saves your life but also gives you a life worth living. Giving you a life to live that you can be proud of as well I'm trying my best hour by hour and day by day to stay sober for myself and those who love me I Recover Out Loud Because I Almost Died In Silence and We Do Recover We Do Get Clean We Do Get Sober There Is A Life After Addiction One Day At A Time Everyday Just For One More Day

Here’s something nobody tells you when you’re clawing your way out of addiction: you’re getting an education money can’t buy. 🎓💥 No fancy school, no Ivy League, no “expert” in a suit has studied what you survived. You learned in real time, in the trenches, where it actually matters. There’s a kind of wisdom that comes from facing your worst days and making it through. You can’t fake it. You can’t buy it. And the wildest part? That knowledge—your scars, your story, your ability to really see someone who’s still stuck—is priceless. 💯✨ Doctors, therapists, lawyers—they all have their place, and I’m grateful for them. But there are people out there who won’t listen to anyone in a white coat or a fancy office. They’re waiting for someone like you—someone who’s been there, who gets it, who can say, “I know how dark it gets. I made it out. And you can too.” 🫂🌅 So don’t downplay what you’ve been through. Don’t hide your story or your experience. Use it. Teach. Lift. Share. Say the things you needed to hear when you were at your lowest. You might be the only voice that cuts through the noise for someone who desperately needs hope. Your pain has value. Your progress is real. And you—yes, YOU—are living proof that recovery is possible. That’s an education worth sharing. 📚🦋💪 If you’re out there, reading this, and you’re struggling: you’re not alone. Progress is progress. And sometimes the most powerful teachers are the ones who learned the hard way. ❤️‍🩹
