Growing up in New Jersey, within view of Manhattan, she dreamt of a life beyond suburbia with no idea what that was or how to attain it. She often said, “I felt everyone had a guidebook to life except me.”
Drinking helped her find her escape but eventually she hit “rock bottom” – frightened she was losing her mind, her health and even her soul. In 2020 she told her husband she had to go to detox, or she’d die.
After almost five months in rehab, Karen was introduced to the 12 Step program and finally found the coping skills she needed to live.
Karen lives with her husband of 32 years, her dog and two cats. Active in the 12 Steps, she’s working on opening a recovery-based coffee house.
She now has her guidebook of life and is happy, joyous, and free.
