Hey everyone—Belle here. Welcome to Progress is Progress. If you found your way here, you’re probably looking for something real. Well, you’re in the right place. I’m a former meth addict turned recovery counselor, coach, writer, and a ridiculously stubborn hope-holder for anyone who’s ever felt stuck, ashamed, or just “not enough.” I’ve been on both sides of this mess—lived it, learned from it, and still screw things up sometimes. That won’t scare me off, and it shouldn’t scare you either. This place isn’t just for people in recovery. It’s for anyone who’s ever been affected by addiction, for the helpers and the families, the people who love someone in it, the professionals, the ones still in the thick of it, the “gray area” folks, and everyone who thinks recovery should be bigger than just “don’t use.”Here, messy progress counts. Every. Damn. Step. Here’s my question for you: What’s the first thing that comes to mind when you hear the word “progress?” It doesn’t have to be deep—maybe it’s just making your bed or sending that one hard text. Or maybe it’s surviving something bigger. Drop your answers below, or just say hi and tell us who you are. Don’t overthink it. This community will be exactly what we make it together. Glad you’re here, Belle

Hey everyone—I’m Belle, and this is Progress is Progress. If you’re new here, first off: welcome. I’m a writer, a recovery coach, and a former meth addict who’s spent time on both sides of the struggle. My blog and everything I do center on one idea—progress counts, no matter how small. I know firsthand that the journey gets ugly sometimes, and nobody wants fake positivity or sugarcoating here. This Skool is an honest space for anyone touched by addiction—folks in recovery, people thinking about it, loved ones, the helpers and the pros, and the ones still figuring things out. If you’ve ever felt alone, stuck, or like you just keep screwing up, consider this your new crew. We’re real here, and we show up messy if we need to. What you’ll find: raw stories, tools from both my lived experience and my work, community support, Q&As, and a place to talk (or just listen) without shame. If you’re curious, check out my blog on Substack, where I talk life, relapse, hope, shame, and getting back up. I won’t promise magic, but I do promise honesty. Introduce yourself below if you want, or just say hi. Either way—glad you’re here. —Belle
