Episode description
Maintaining a healthy recovery during a worldwide pandemic can be hard work. In addition to keeping connected to our support systems and staying away from opportunities to use, we also need to continue the work of self-evaluation.

Learning to honor and care for ourselves is a hallmark of recovery.
