Chain of Recovery

One of our biggest supporters is starting something new in the area.
Here is a message from Brooke Hawley, please contact her with questions :

"East Jordan High School graduate who left home, earned a couple of fancy degrees, and has come back to support our community. I have over 10 years of experience in the mental health field. This will be my first presentation of a group opportunity in East Jordan. I'm hoping in the future to bring different group topics, times, and days to the community. If you are interested in attending the SAD group, please contact. I look forward to this adventure with you!

I’m excited to announce the launch of my Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD) Group — a small, supportive space designed to help you gain skills to cope with the winter season.

🗓 Thursdays at 11 AM or 6 PM

📅 Starting January 8

📍 First Presbyterian Church of East Jordan

💲 $10 per session (approximately 12 sessions)

Group topics include:

• Understanding your SAD symptoms

• How thoughts and behaviors maintain low mood

• Identifying and challenging negative thoughts

• Increasing positive activities during the winter months

Limited spots available — please register as soon as possible

Hey!
If you cannot help financially (even tho there are cool gifts if you do), please share this post and Kickstart campaign!
She is bringing a romance bookstore and mocktail bar right to Boyne City!
This woman is the definition of a warrior!
Please support or share !!!!
Thank-you!!!!!

Hey friends - I need to be really honest for a moment.

Dust & Blush Bookshop is not funded yet. This is an all-or-nothing Kickstarter, and if we don’t reach our $50,000 goal by Sunday night, the entire project goes away.

I think a lot of people see the numbers and assume we’re “fine” or that someone else will step in. But the truth is: we still need our community to show up.

If you’ve followed my journey, loved my content, or believed in what I’m building - this is me directly asking for your help.

A $5 or $10 pledge truly matters. It’s not “too small.” It adds up faster than you think, and it’s how campaigns like this cross the finish line.

If my content and/or my dream of opening Dust & Blush has ever made you feel excited, seen, or hopeful - please consider backing today or sharing this with someone who loves books, small businesses, or community spaces.

Thank you for being here. It truly makes a difference.

The Circle of Control Audit-a little help in preparing for the holiday week ahead of us. Remember to be kind to yourself!

Step 1: Grab a piece of paper or your notes app and list everything that’s been stressing you out lately. Big things. Small things. Holiday stuff. Non holiday stuff. All of it counts.

Step 2: Now split that list into two columns: In My Control / Influence and Out of My Control.
In My Control: Things you can take action on, adjust, or respond to in some way. Examples: your boundaries, how much you commit to, how you talk to yourself, where you spend your energy.
Out of My Control: Things you cannot change, manage, or fix. Other people’s behavior, timing, delays, opinions, outcomes.

Step 3: Release the Out-of-my-Control-Stuff. Take a breath and remind yourself: “I’m allowed to stop carrying what isn’t mine to manage.”

Step 4: Choose One Inner Circle Action. Pick just one thing from your “in control” list and ask: What’s the smallest, kindest step I could take here?

This woman has an amazing story! She is opening a romance book store / gift shop / lounge / mocktail bar! Help her to reach her goal and give a fun place to hangout in Boyne City!

What I didn't know is if she doesn't meet her goal she will not get any of the pay outs!
