Winds of Change

On March 16, 2024, a news article reported significant storm surges threatening coastal areas, catching everyone off guard. In the small town of Frenchtown-Rumbly, Maryland, *Michael* felt his world turn upside down after reading this news.

*Michael* had always been afraid of storms ever since a hurricane had ravaged his family home when he was a child. This fear was compounded by his ongoing struggle with substance abuse, a battle that had cost him jobs and relationships.

As *Michael* read about the storm surges, he was transported back to that traumatic time, triggering a wave of anxiety. Desperate for a way to regain control of his life, he remembered hearing about the Stepping Into Action program. Visiting the website (https://hofmanhollis.com), he vowed to follow its guidance meticulously.

Through the program, *Michael* learned practical strategies for coping with anxiety and overcoming substance abuse. One pivotal moment was when he resonated deeply with the line: 'You don't have to see the whole staircase, just take the first step.' This quote became a mantra for his journey.

Experts on the program's effectiveness provide various opinions. Dr. *Lily Thompson*, a psychologist, praises it for its practical approach and actionable steps. However, Dr. *Mark Bowers*, a substance abuse counselor, argues that its online format limits personal interaction which is crucial for lasting recovery.

Despite these conflicts, *Michael* found solace and direction through the program. He realized that finding help online was a lifeline in a community with limited local resources.

Looking back, *Michael* felt it was one of his best decisions. The journey was challenging, but starting it was worth everything.
