They promise their clients magic results, and set them up for major failure down the road. We’d all be a lot better off if we admitted the truth to ourselves and the world. Healing is not a one-size-fits-all journey. In fact, for some people, it is one that never ends.
The 5 biggest lies you’ve been told about recovery.
