Has your New Years goal or resolution pointed toward substance use recovery? Recovery doesn’t look the same for everyone—and that’s exactly why support matters.

A Certified Recovery Specialist (CRS) is someone with lived experience who walks alongside individuals on their recovery journey. Not to fix, judge, or direct, but to support, listen, and remind people they are not alone.

CRSs use their own recovery experience, combined with training and certification to:

-Build genuine, trusting connections
-Offer hope through shared understanding
-Support individuals in finding their own pathways to recovery

At the heart of peer support is this truth: recovery is possible, and connection makes it stronger.

✨ Follow us this week for Recovery tips and tools brought to you by our own CRS staff✨️

✨️What will you do today to keep moving on your recovery pathway?✨️

Whether it be recovery in your mental health or recovery from substance use, both take intentional action. Both take pathways. Both take support.

Every day for most people, it's intentional. Doing things to make sure they are still walking their pathways. Even in the smallest of steps or rest stops.

Of course we reach places that are not as hard, we start find the pathway to be more stable, but in the background we continue to work the steps.

Steps 5,354,678 are just as relevant as step 1.

Keep walking, don't skip the rest stops, and recharge.

We've been talking all week about setting those goals for the New Year! ✨️✨️ Lets chat!

Setting goals can be the same, but different from setting resolutions!

Resolutions -> focus on what someone wants to change, not how to change it.

Goals -> start small and build momentum!

Setting long term goals, that have smaller goals to support, can lead to confidence building, action plans for setbacks, long term sustainability, and they prioritize progress over pressure!

Some goals take time—and that’s okay 🌱 What’s one long-term goal you’re proud of starting?

Long term goals give us things to look forward to! Some ideas of long term goals are:

-Saving for a trip/vacation
-Budgeting for a new game system
-Writing a book
-Health/Wellness goals
-Moving to a new home
-Going back to school
-Learning to cook
-Living alone
-Traveling to a new place
-Career advancement

So many things! Setting long term goals can be half, but they can also have small goals that surround them! One step at a time, one change and choice at a time!

Peer support can support you in long term goals as well!

Sit over coffee.
Chat over tea.
Cry over espresso.
Laugh over lemon water.

It doesn't matter the drink, but when you hold space for another person, it fills their cup.

This is your reminder to make plans today, you never know who might need that space 🖤

Who's ready to meet with us for Caffeinate and Advocate mini sesh 2026? Coming soon :)
