Addict II Athlete Our Links- https://linktr.ee/addicttoathlete Mental Health and Addiction support & Resources This has become a pivot point in our new way of life.
(1)

We are a group of friends, peers and family members who all have one thing in common…addiction. By knowing an addict, having been affected by addiction or being in recovery ourselves. We have come together to help one another with the outcome from all angles of addiction. We have found a new way of life, by exercising and becoming physically fit. We are here to carry the message of recovery and change the outlook of the word… addict. To show that there is hope for every individual affected by addiction out there. We have adopted the philosophy of Erase and Replace, defined as; erasing our addiction and replacing it with something of greater value (ie. healthy living, friendship, family, respect, and compassion). Our goal is to spread the message of recovery to the addict and family of the addict who still struggles and to show that we have discovered a more excellent way to live. We wish to redefine the public’s view on addiction and recovery. Many individuals have been told there was no hope for them, “Once an addict always an addict”, that we would never change. Unfortunately this is a common viewpoint. This belief is simply not true, we are living proof that change is possible, all we need is an opportunity and we have found it by moving from an addict to an athlete. We are here to put addiction and recovery in front of everyone’s minds and to redefine who we are as producers and creators of something bigger than ourselves. We are here to take a stand and to make a difference, showing we are good people and are living proof that overcoming addiction begins at the starting line as we take strides alongside one another, in unity, to cross that finish line together, knowing that we are the best athletes in our world.

Twelve years ago, I buried my 22 year-old daughter after an accidental overdose. It changed me forever.

What I’ve learned since then is this: grief doesn’t leave, but neither does love. You don’t move on—you move forward carrying both.

I’ve learned that speaking her name keeps her close, that compassion matters more than judgment, and that addiction does not erase a person’s worth.

I’ve learned that joy and sorrow can exist together—and that choosing joy is not a betrayal, but a testament to love.

Most of all, I’ve learned that my daughter’s life mattered. Still does.
And so does every life still here, still trying, still deserving of grace.

I carry her with me every day—in how I love, how I forgive, and how I hope.

Always and forever your Mom ❤️

If you need help or support reach out. ❤️❤️❤️

Listen as Coach Blu discusses an alternative approach to New Year's resolutions by choosing a single word or principle to focus on throughout the year. I share a personal strategy of embracing 'consistency' for 2026, highlighting the importance of showing up, creating healthy patterns, and making meaningful progress.

“You must become one with yourself before anything or anyone else.”

I choose to stop participating in my own suffering. I will be my own loyal friend, even if no one else is, and I will not abandon myself. I will focus on the love that is present in my life instead of chasing the love that isn’t. I will speak to myself with kindness and compassion, and I will stop engaging in things that bring me unhappiness. From this moment on, I am on my own side.

Take your place in 2026.
