Overview

"Journey with Ali as she travels East to India and Nepal, in her adventures of sobriety as she stumbles out of darkness and tries to find her light. This is not just her story, but the story of the strength that develops first within oneself, and then with others as we link arms to overcome addiction and trauma. Jeanne Ferran states: ""Your story is universal not just for alcoholics in recovery but for anyone who has to be honest with themselves and face what destroys them. I love how you take us with you on your journey of discovery and how you weave these stories together in a tapestry of your experience, your goodness and your journey. I felt like I was holding my breath for a couple of hours. You are my new favorite writer.I am so impressed by your gratitude. You are inspiring!"" Matt V. writes: "" I appreciate your honesty imagery and anecdotes. It all rings very true in its unique way. I especially like the allusion to drinking and drugging as ""taking out a second mortgage on your joy"". Harry Goodheart writes: ""Ali Webster writes straight from the heart and cuts to the quick. While spiritual transformation is an ancient theme, it is some of the most difficult writing to undertake and she does so with honesty, clarity and an infectious dose of hope for us all, vital for whatever walls we might have hit on our own personal paths."""

This is a very well-written and inspirational memoir. I felt like I was actually there with Ali, witnessing all of her experiences. It's also a helpful book, showing those who have addictions that they don't have to resort to their previous negative fail-safe solutions when things in life don't go their way or merely threaten to not go their way. -Judy Roberts Wonderful, honest well-written memoir. Very engaging, whether you're in recovery or not. -Melissa Ann Lozoff
