Hello everyone! My name is Dana but everyone calls me Dee. Firstly, I am so excited to be here learning with everyone! I had wanted to be an addiction counselor since I was young as drugs had played a very big part in my life from a young age though it was never first hand experience with using until a couple years back when I myself decided to try hardcore drugs, quickly became addicted, and today myself and my husband have 2+ years sober as of April 18th 2023. Sobriety is something I feel strongly about and I’m going to continue to help people with my own life experiences and knowledge. As I mentioned, I have a husband who I absolutely love with my whole heart, we have been together for 14 years and still going extremely strong. We are that lovey annoying couple that still have little high school kid crushes on each other as grown adults, it’s cute! 🥰 We do not have children children, but we have 4 very spoiled kitty’s and our princess, our beloved Bearded Dragon Rage. I am also an artist, I absolutely love all forms of art and this summer will be teaching an art class to the kids at the local church. Abstract art is my favorite, I do resin epoxy art, paintings, drawings, sculpting and everything in between as well as writing pieces as well. I plan to write a book one day in the near future as well. We have a lot of big goals in our little family! I run a really great Instagram page for recovery @ sobrietyiscool_ and it really has taken off!! I’ve met many wonderful people and it’s truly a great community! I plan to soon start holding zoom meetings with the members and anyone else interested as well as hopefully soon turn Sobriety Is Cool into an interactive app with many great features that will be built for users support. I am so excited to get started in this field and help people save themselves. I’m going to do this all for my family and friends I’ve sadly lost along the way to addiction. May all our angels fly high!
