My Journey to recovery in 2020

My name is Debbie Crouch. I am a Creative Recovery Coach, artist and author.
Helping people who feel lost and alone discover their true selves through the expression of emotions with creativity.
How do I know? Because I have been there and found my true self with a passion for creativity?
2019 was the start of my journey, and joining Leeds Recovery College was the moment and my time to evolve, to know that there was more to me, and to have purpose again in life.
Everything happens for a reason, which may be a cliche, but it is so true.
We grow and expand from things we feel get in the way and challenge us, however big or small.
Looking back to 2020 and where I was on my recovery journey to wellness, I share openly and honestly how I found Leeds Recovery College in 2019, which led to me volunteering in the co-delivery of the well-being recovery action plan online during the lockdown.
My learning is that we get wise through pain, experience, learning and struggle.
In 2020 I achieved my dream to become a creative lifestyle and mental health blogger, my aim is helping to support and share ideas for creative wellness.
This is just the first stage on my journey to become a Creative Recovery Coach, Artist & Author.
