Welcome to the MVR blog!
Recovery is just as beautiful as addiction is ugly. Our blog may not always be beautiful – because life can be difficult. Ideally, we would like to inspire conversation and learning, because without sharing and empathizing with others’ opinions and life experience, we don’t grow as people. If you are seeking understanding and growth – welcome home.
