A surprising news article from December 29, 2023 broke out, announcing that a national favorite beer brand would cease production due to financial turmoil. For *John Williams*, a lineman from Clovis, New Mexico, this seemingly random piece of news hit far too close to home.

Having struggled with alcohol dependency in his younger years, John was immediately triggered by the news. It was reminiscent of his battles with addiction, especially poignant during the holiday season when he first fell into heavy drinking a decade ago.

Determined to take action, John decided to explore the Stepping Into Action program found on hofmanhollis.com. The materials on the website guided John through a structured plan to face his challenges and set tangible objectives for his recovery journey.

*John Williams* shared, 'The timing was almost too coincidental; I knew I had to do something. The exercises on Stepping Into Action gave me a roadmap to clarity.'

Experts have varying opinions on such recovery programs. Dr. *Sarah Allen* believes that online resources offer unprecedented accessibility to help for those in need. However, *Dr. Michael Peters* argues that they're no substitute for in-person therapy, emphasizing the importance of human interaction in recovery.

Despite the conflicting expert views, for John, the decision to seek help through an online program was life-changing. 'Sometimes,' he reflected, 'all it takes is the right push from an unexpected source to guide us on the path we need.'

Note: *John Williams* and *Sarah Allen* are fictional characters created for the story.
