The voices that started it all
Before the keynote, there was the room.
Years before the insurance stage, this story lived inside recovery and treatment programs — with the women who heard it when their lives depended on it. These are their words.
“This place has given me the tools and skills — you have given me the power to know what I want.”
“You helped me realize I really do want to get better.”
“You helped me have a change of heart.”
“It made me want to be me for me.”
“I never thought I had a purpose — and now thanks to you, the will to not hurt myself and others is that much stronger.”
“I want to commend you for pushing through your struggles and looking at the good in life. We've all been through a lot... it isn't about the past, it's what you learn and how you apply it. You made a huge impact on my day, my treatment and even my life.”
These notes were shared with Kathryn during her years working with recovery & treatment programs. Names are withheld to honor the confidentiality of the rooms where they were given — a trust she holds with deep gratitude.
