YOUR BODY IS
WELCOME HERE

FOUNDER & EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR

I look back at that little girl and think, if only you knew what was ahead. Years of childhood lost to counting calories, body checking, and being hospitalized far from the people you love. Where do little girls learn to hate themselves, to feel inadequate, to pick apart every detail in the mirror? They are not born that way.

Recovery gave me something I did not think was possible, a sense of being at home in myself. The ability to accept my body, connect with other people, find joy in my life, trust what I know to be true, and live a life I could not have imagined. And now, the most precious gift of all, the ability to grow a human in the body I nearly destroyed.

PEOPLE & OPERATIONS COORDINATOR

Recovery has given me the chance to truly get to know myself, all the little parts that make me, me. It’s given me a sense of safety in my body I didn’t know was possible. It’s opened the door to a life full of awe, wonder, and adventure… a life where I no longer shrink, but instead take up space. I found my voice, and now I use it proudly.

It’s given me the ability to connect deeply and intimately with the people I love, and to experience a kind of love with my husband that feels safe and authentic. It’s helped me see my body not for how it looks, but for everything it does for me. It’s given me the chance to rewrite my path, and now walk alongside others as they find their way home to themselves too.

CREATIVE MANAGER

Recovery gifted me everything. It gave me back the parts of myself my eating disorder took first—my humor, my loud, unfiltered laugh, my curiosity, my sense of play. I’m not in survival mode anymore. I’m hiking mountains, flying with hawks, sitting still, and showing up. I get to think about how I want to live, what I want to give, who I want to be. My world isn’t a tiny snow globe anymore—it’s a wide, scary, exciting expanse where I feel it all.

MARKETING COORDINATOR

I used to believe that I was destined to be unhappy. My emotions constantly felt too much and the pressure of the world was crushing down on me. Once i chose recovery, my eyes were opened up to the opportunities that I had around me and just how loved and accepted I am as my true self.

I have always had a desire to help others, but recovery taught me how to reflect my kindness and optimism upon myself, allowing me to embrace the excitement of everyday life and find joy in the little moments that once passed me by. Recovery gave me my spark back, and life has never been so beautiful.
