Recovery Captured
Приєднався 23 тра 2021
It's me, Shannon Louise, a certified recovery coach, and a self-verified addict. Follow me on my journey through recovery from everything that has made my life a little bit harder, while at the same time, making it that much easier.
Russell Bird 2022 Merry Christmas
Here we go again!
Cheers to another year, another Christmas, and another Russell party! Our orphan, Russell Bird, made it to Dane and Shannon's house this year. Andddddd, I'll let him be the first to tell you that it's been one hell of a year. He moved apartments, he helped when Finn got sick, and he supported us through the growth of our businesses.
Russell Bird may have slept at our house, but he was with all of us each day. He was there when we needed him the most, even when life became fragile. Our outlook and curiosity about life took to a whole new meaning with the passing of Justin. Just like our family, Russell Bird was there to support us and help Justin take flight. -May you be the next cardinal I see-
With this year coming to an end, I want everyone to know that I am so grateful that I get to spend it all with you, here and in spirit. I love you more -Shannon and Dane (and the pups, duh)

Awesome-- loved the interaction between you two!
Wow what a spill! I’m so proud of all three of you for being so forthcoming and open to the issues! It did take a village to help your dad out with you and I will always say it was your mom’s loss and our gain! We are so fortunate and blessed that we are so close. Stay cardinal strong and keep finding your joy in every day❣️
Love your openness and honesty. Keep up the work!
Wowza what a podcast! Leigh Ann you certainly shared a lot and lost a lot. Keep up the good work on yourself the rest will fall into place.
This is amazing thank you so much
No, thank you!!!!

Fabulous chat! I love the remark that Rachel made “your your own problem”. How true--- keep up the great work you two!
What a great discussion, Mike had a wealth of information to share! Good luck in your future endeavors.

I found Hope very inspiring, great job to both of you!
Thank you so much! I found this conversation to be very helpful for me!
Another great story! I’m glad Lou mentioned that OCD could be over thinking thoughts and that can lead to anxiety and then binge eating or working out. Keep up the great work Shannon Louise in getting the word out!
Thank you for your endless amount of support! xoxoxox
Wow who even watches this garbage? Sound like a nerd what were you addicted to coffee?
“Sit with it” and “God is in the pause” is so huge in the process of acceptance! I admire your thought process for your age --when its taken me in my late 50s early 60s to figure it out. Keep up the wonderful work you two!
Thank you for all of your support! I Wouldn't be where I am today if it wasn't for you. Literally!
Great job gals on this topic, keep up the great work!
I love the three A’s weather your in recovery or not! It does make me sad that you still feel you two need to make amends. You both have come so far in this process of healing. Your doing a great job sharing your experiences--- love and light!
I hope you keep up with these podcasts you both are so great I love listening to them on my way to work your laughs are contagious and make me smile every time. ♥️Five minutes in, I have to say to this day I tell my friends both to not hold in farts because of bad thoughts and the other about dogs with no butt cheeks and silent farts😂just now realizing I probably learned that from you Shannon I miss you so much also I’m definitely wearing a tie die Ben and Jerry’s shirt too as I’m listening to this about to head in to work at Ben and Jerry’s manufacturing 😝😅anyways you two are great and I’m glad I listened to this today I’ve also been feeling off this week and unmotivated with so many emotions rolling over, somehow you always come out with content thats exactly relatable to and this was exactly what I needed to hear☺️Makes my day always
Are you kiddddddding me?!!! Taty this is so incredibly sweet of you to say. Your words of affirmation just brings the biggest smile to my face! The endless amount of knowledge that I have around flatulence is absurd, but I'm glad I can make you laugh! I'm so happy to hear that you can relate and that you enjoy to listen. And, you know, you can always reach out if you need a little extra lovin's. xoxoxox I love you more :)
I absolutely love your podcast! It's so great to hear your story! I never really heard it, I think you've told me things here & there but I'm so glad that I was able to listen to this! Thank you to Laci for sending me the link to this! And would you mind if I shared this on Facebook? I know that a lot of my friends on there would love to hear this story and can relate to a lot of things especially with the fact that you go into things other than drugs and alcoholism that you can also be in recovery for! ♥
Sierra! It's so good to hear from you. Thank you for your kind words! And, yes, please share this!!! xoxox
I MISS YOU SHANNON! YOU helped change my life! You and ANDREW will ALWAYS be a huge part of my life and where I am today. Love you! Always!
