The Recovery Connection

12/11/2025

Today, we have some tough news. It is with such heavy hearts that we share that our old four-legged friend, Jax, crossed the rainbow bridge on Friday 🌈

For those who may not have known him, Jax was our loyal companion at TRC — a gentle, loving soul who came to the center each day with his mama Abby Holbach (who served as our Wellness Director and had been with us from our very early days until she moved to PA in 2023). Somehow, he always knew who needed a little extra love. He had this quiet magic about him… a steady presence that could calm even the hardest days.

Jax was never “just a dog” to us. He was part of our family — and a big part of the heart of this place. For so many of the women who came through our doors, Jax was a source of comfort, safety, and pure, unconditional love. His presence helped people feel seen, held, and less alone.

Please help us send love to Abby and the family ❤️

If you have any special memories with Jax, please share them here!

Jax, you’ll forever be a part of our hearts and our story. 🕊️🐾

No one told us perimenopause could feel like a spiritual revolution.

The body changes, yes — but so does the soul.

We shed old identities, release what no longer fits, and step into a power that’s been waiting underneath it all.

My new blog dives into the spiritual journey of perimenopause — the messy, sacred, beautiful truth of a deeper version of who we really are.

This is womanhood, rewritten. 🌙

💫 Read here:

There’s a moment in every woman’s life when her body begins to whisper that things are changing. For some, it’s subtle — a few missed cycles, a few restless nights. For others, it feels like an earthquake shaking everything she once understood about herself. This is perimenopause — that in...

🌿 Celebrating a beautiful milestone! 🌿

Please join us in congratulating one of our amazing clients on completing our Residential Program! 💫

Over the past weeks, she’s done the brave and often uncomfortable work of healing — facing her story, breaking old patterns, and learning to trust herself again. Recovery isn’t easy, but she’s shown incredible courage, honesty, and resilience every step of the way.

This is not the end — it’s the beginning of a new chapter built on hope, self-worth, and connection. We are so proud of her and can’t wait to see the amazing things she’ll do next.

One day at a time, one brave choice at a time. 💖
