Hi, I’m Lori.
My good friend and co-author Nia Carmody and I traveled the path of emotional recovery, and in doing so, we discovered 9 progressions that helped us find the key to lasting internal happiness. What a complete game changer!
The path is simple, but it’s not a quick fix. It’s a transformative way of living — one I discovered through a recovery program shared by a dear friend I serendipitously met on an early morning run. That encounter changed my life, and it can change yours, too. I believe you’re here for a reason!
If you’re seeking more joy, more peace, and freedom from relying on others to fill your cup, you’re in the right place.
I often describe myself as a “recovering emotional drunk.” Curious what that means? I can best explain it by sharing an excerpt from my book with Nia, How’s That Working for Ya, Honey? That excerpt is below.

I’m grateful for every twist and turn of this journey — even the “horse.”
Peace,
Lori
True happiness isn’t found out there — it comes from within. The journey to emotional sobriety begins with taking full ownership of your peace and well-being.

What is emotional sobriety, anyway?
Letting Go of the “If Only” Trap
Have you ever caught yourself thinking, “If only they’d change… if only I had this… then I’d be happy”? That’s the cycle of looking for something “out there” to fix what’s happening inside — a way to escape or numb emotional pain. But happiness is an inside job.
Lori knows this struggle all too well. Her search for peace took her on a journey through life’s biggest questions: What is standing in the way of my happiness and how do I conquer that beast?
And along that journey, she discovered the answer! Learn it here.
