SHARING OUT LOUD

You are NOT your trauma -- with Addiction Specialist and Author, Caroline Beidler

September 11, 2024 Heather Danby

My recent conversation with Caroline Beidler, MSW was wonderful. I love hearing from other addicts who are in recovery, listening to their stories, and hearing how they've taken their trauma(s) and turned it into triumph!

Caroline believes that transformation while working on addiction is possible and that healing is a choice. Her own experience in addiction, mental health, and trauma recovery has not only inspired her but FUELED her to use her gifts to help other women find recovery. Caroline has written several books* (You Are Not Your Trauma is out 9/24/24!), she's a global speaker, and she also works with federal agencies and consults with non-profit organizations, state governments, and international partners to discuss the importance of addiction and recovery.  Caroline is absolute proof that you CAN recover from addiction and you can use your experiences as your superpower.

When she isn’t writing, speaking, or building community, Caroline lives in Eastern Tennessee with her husband and five-year-old twins where she enjoys hiking in the mountains and building up her community’s local recovery ministry.
