Sparks Change

On December 17, 2023, a shocking news article reported a significant increase in alcohol-related incidents in small towns across Pennsylvania. This unexpected surge resonated deeply with *John Maddox*, a resident of Inglesmith, Pennsylvania, who had long battled alcoholism. Years ago, *John* had celebrated every festive season with more drinks than he could count, until his life fell apart. The news article brought back vivid, unwanted memories of his struggle, pushing him into a state of self-reflection.

*John* could not shake the feeling that the article was a warning, a reminder of the path he had once trodden. Determined to make a change, he turned to the Stepping Into Action program (found at hofmanhollis.com) for guidance. The structured steps and actionable advice gave him a lifeline.

*John* began to immerse himself in the program. One exercise that stood out involved listing moments of regret but also recognizing the strength it took to overcome them. 'I never realized how much I had lost to drinking until I saw it in black and white' *John* remarked. His participation in the program began to restore his sense of purpose and well-being.

Experts have had mixed reviews about programs like Stepping Into Action. Some praise its practicality and supportive community, noting that it offers realistic steps that individuals can follow at their own pace. However, others question the long-term effectiveness and highlight the need for personalized therapy to address deeper issues.

Despite the conflicting opinions, *John* felt that the program worked for him. The combination of steps, the anonymity, and the convenience of doing it online helped him stay consistent and dedicated. 'Getting help was the best decision I made. With no local resources, finding something online was a blessing,' *John* concluded, realizing that his journey to recovery was a mosaic of small but significant steps, each taking him closer to a brighter future.
