Getting sober is just the beginning.

Overcoming a dependency or addiction is a Master Warrior level feat. If you've lived it, you know. Maybe you're new to sobriety, or perhaps you're decades in. Either way—at some point in the journey—you have to learn how to actually live in the world. To not only survive, but to thrive. This means reclaiming your power, learning how to cope with a range of emotions, recalibrating your relationships, learning to hear and speak the truth, and renewing your sense of meaning and purpose.

We Are The Luckiest is the "what's next?" in your sobriety journey. In this course, you will be guided through the most pressing issues that block your growth and true peace in recovery. Through my own personal journey and the experience of working with hundreds of people, I have developed a deep understanding of where we get stuck, what we really want, and how to get there. Recovery is a life-long path, but this course will provide you with potent fundamentals to shift your experience, connect you with other people who share your experience, and establish a new baseline of possibility in your life.

You deserve a magnificent life, a beautiful life, a life you are proud to call home.

 
“The challenge of recovery is to establish ownership of your body and your mind – of your self. This means feeling free to know what you know and to feel what you feel without becoming overwhelmed, enraged, ashamed, or collapsed.”
— Bessel Van der Kolk

What former students have to say...

This course really helped me to understand the shame I was living in. It helped me identify boundaries that needed to be set. It also really helped me with grief and anger that I had been suppressing. - Summer 2018 Student
It completely changed how I view not-drinking: not as a matter of willpower, but rather just a change of focus: since life is in focus and drinking blurs it, drinking now looks like such a hassle. Seriously. I think that is really surprising and amazing, and yay! - Summer 2018 Student
Every week was a new adventure and made me think in ways I’ve never even considered thinking. - Summer 2018 Student
I was honored to bear witness to Laura's personal process with the work as well as each student in the class. The level of honesty and vulnerability among the group encouraged me to participate and share. - Summer 2018 Student

“Working with Laura changed my life. She held up a picture of a future in sobriety I could not even imagine and she rooted me on when I thought I had to go it alone. Laura’s words are in my bones and I go back to them over and over again to find strength, understanding, and a way forward. I could not be more grateful to have her work in my life.”
— Beth Briggs, Student

“Through finding Laura’s work I not only found a voice that I could identify with, I found my way back to myself. Her deep understanding of recovery paired with her compassionate wisdom gave me the tools that I so desperately sought as a woman, a mother, a human recovering from addiction. Her insight and teachings were invaluable to me as I began to understand that recovery does not end once you put down the bottle. She taught me how to create a life for myself that is congruent with who I am and what I want. Laura will forever be one of the greatest teachers in my life. ”
— Brooke Mays, Student
