Jemima

I am a creative, sister, daughter, granddaughter, colleague and friend. Surrounding myself with good people doing great things.

 

I work as a graphic designer and product lead with Recoverlution. From working on the branding to working on aligning everyone on the overall vision. Keeping communication fluid, making sure everyone knows where we are in our journey. I care for making a positive change in this world, through the work I do. 

 

Growing up, I was surrounded by loved ones with addiction. Some relationships died because they’ve stayed in their addiction. Some have flourished due to them surrendering to a better life. A recovered and abundant life. 

 

I tried so hard to change people, fix them, make them better. It was painful watching the people I cared about the most, destroy themselves. But I've learnt that they have to want to help themselves. What they do, is none of my business. What I do, is.

 

I started looking for the people I'd lost in my friends and family. I was trying to look for a home, stability, love. But I'm coming to realise that it's not about somebody giving me a home, but being my own home.

 

Being part of Recoverlution has made me hopeful and excited about seeing more people grow and thrive from life after addiction.
