Turning Carmel Upside Down

On August 05, 2023, an unexpected news article shook *Rachel* in Carmel, New York. The article detailed a scandal involving a local politician's past struggles with substance abuse. Little did Rachel know, this seemingly distant news would uproot her own past demons. Decades ago, *Rachel* struggled with alcohol addiction, a battle she thought she had left far behind. But as she read the news, memories came flooding back, reminding her of the dark corners she once lived in.

The triggering effect of the article made it clear to Rachel that some wounds needed healing, even if they were old. She recalled a long-gone friend who had succumbed to addiction, igniting a fear and urgency in her. In a desperate search for help, she stumbled upon the Stepping Into Action program at hofmanhollis.com.

Following the program became Rachel's new routine. She embraced its teachings, hopeful that it would lead her to a better place. She particularly found solace in the words of one of the program advocates, who said, 'Healing is not a destination, it is a journey, and every step, no matter how small, is progress.' This quote resonated deeply with Rachel, giving her the strength to continue moving forward.

Experts in the field lauded the effectiveness of the Stepping Into Action program, emphasizing its structured approach and supportive community. However, not everyone agreed. Some critics argued that online programs couldn't replace face-to-face counseling and community support.

Despite the controversy, Rachel found solace and support in the program. She realized that while finding help locally was challenging, the online availability made a world of difference. 'It was a good idea to get help,' she thought, 'and this platform allowed me to start my journey from the comfort of my home.'
