Thank You Elizabeth Ann – A Farewell to Betty Ford

“My makeup wasn’t smeared, I wasn’t disheveled, I behaved politely,and I never finished off a bottle, so how could I be alcoholic?” ~Betty Ford

A woman that I admire passed away a few days ago.  We heard the news on TV about the death of the amazing former First Lady, Betty Ford.  She was recognized worldwide for her candor about her personal struggles with breast cancer, alcohol and addiction. Shortly after leaving the White House she admitted she was going into treatment for her addiction. The preconceived face of the female alcoholic changed that day, replaced by this beautiful, smart, energetic woman who famously behaved politely. She wasn’t a stumbling, rude, social misfit! It was a giant step for women struggling with alcoholism and addiction. Through her public admission, Mrs. Ford removed the social stigma of women’s addictions

She helped so many women by being open about her own battles.  Mrs. Ford openly discussed her breast cancer and the required surgery with the press.  She posed for photos shortly after her operation and was very candid about her mastectomy. This─ at a time when the word was barely whispered! A subject that had been taboo became news headlines and people were finally free to openly discuss their personal battles.

Mrs. Ford was a strong women’s advocate throughout her life. I loved reading an article about her recently that described her going to the Betty Ford clinic, walking into meetings and introducing herself: “Hi, I am Betty Ford; I am an alcoholic and an addict”. I can just imagine the reassurance that her presence gave the others in attendance.

Living life authentically, with grace and appreciation for what you have, is what Betty Ford showed us all how to do. Even when confronted with personal challenges, she openly shared her feelings of trepidation about them.  I know that she has left an indelible mark in the recovery community and has advanced the treatment of addiction to where it is today. Thank you, Betty Ford.

If you’ve been moved by the life of Betty Ford or other inspirational women, famous or not, who have overcome addictions or other forms of abuse, please share your stories and reflections below! I look forward to reading them.

Live Faithfully,

I Believe The Universe Supports Me

The Power of Now

When I started my personal recovery and transformation over twenty years ago, I realized early on what I was thinking was directly impacting the path I traveled. I started using affirmations and I must admit being a type “A” personality, I had practically wallpapered my home in them. Everywhere I turned there were yellow patches. I was desperately trying to change that screaming egotistical little voice inside of me that I call mini me. Her name is Louise. Louise is always reminding me that I should of, was less than or never going to. She thrives on negativity and she loves suffering. Happily, I now manage Louise but it took time and effort. Giving my ego an identity helped me to recognize my negative thinking.

I want to share with you a wonderful small book by Eckhart Tolle, “Practicing the Power of Now”. It was instrumental in teaching me to let go of the past, stay out of the future and fully experience the present. Now my emotions and my thoughts are in alignment, allowing me to be a better woman than I thought I could be. As you discover who you really are, you open yourself up to a life of greater achievement and to experience all the good life has to offer. Now all the positive energy I put out there is what the Universe is sending back to me.
