the "affirmantra" episode

Written By DeAnn Knighton

Trigger Warning: All episodes discuss addiction, depression, anxiety, mental health and the recovery process in depth. If there is any additional triggering material that needs noting there will be mention at the beginning of the episode.

If the word affirmation makes you think of "I'm good enough, I'm smart enough and gosh darnit people like me," then this episode is for you.  DeAnn revisits some old "step work" and attempts to change your mind about mantras and affirmation.
