Through these stories, Kettelhack brings alive the ongoing process of building self-esteem and explores what this process means at this point in recovery--"turning it over" to a Higher Power, doing service, developing an increasingly positive attitude toward health, relationships, and family, and creating a new definition of success in sobriety.
"We begin to discover," writes Kettelhack, "the greatest adventure sobriety offers us: discovering who we are and what we have the capacity to become."
