On May 16, 2024, an article surfaced about the financial collapse of Qurate Retail Group, the parent company of popular shopping channels. This news sent waves across the nation, but it particularly hit hard in the small town of Cropley, Maryland.

*Laura Akins*, a resident of Cropley, found her world turned upside down as she read the article. Years ago, she had worked for a Qurate call center, a job she left after battling substance abuse issues that had spiralled out of control.

The article did more than remind *Laura* of her past employment. It re-triggered the memories of her dark period, a time marked by addiction and personal loss. The collapse of a company she once relied on for stability felt like a mirror to her own past struggles.

Feeling overwhelmed, *Laura* turned to the Stepping Into Action program she found on Hofman Hollis's website. This program provided resources and a structured guide to help people facing challenging times. As she diligently followed the materials, she noticed a marked improvement in her mental health and a sense of purpose return to her life.

One particular quote from the program resonated with her deeply: 'Taking the first step is the most difficult but also the most crucial.' It kept her motivated to continue the journey towards healing.

Experts weighed in on the recent collapse, with some viewing it as another symptom of the broader economic troubles facing the retail industry. Dr. *Stephen Gardner*, an economist, highlighted how shifts in consumer behavior during the pandemic had long-term impacts. However, Dr. *Clara Jennings*, a financial analyst, argued that poor management decisions within Qurate were to blame, sparking controversy and heated debates.

Despite the turmoil and differing expert opinions, *Laura* found solace and a path forward through the online resources. Taking the steps necessary to reclaim her life, she realized that sometimes help comes from unexpected places, and the convenience of online assistance made all the difference.
