Today my guest is Author and Writing Teacher Maureen O’Brien. We’re talking about her recovery journey, the spiritual awakening in a Burger King parking lot, growing up in a dysfunctional home, but mostly her new book, “Gather the Fragments: My Year of Finding God’s Love”. Maureen is such a sweet and generous soul with a talent for helping people to write their own stories. In fact, she’s been a tremendous help to me personally, to rise out of the slog of my second book draft so I’m deeply grateful for her.   Before we jump in, just a reminder that if you are a woman in recovery with a desire to do the deep work of becoming free of long standing negative behavior patterns, I offer private coaching sessions. I use a unique combination of coaching strategies to help you identify and achieve goals, and hypnosis to release those stubborn self sabotaging blocks. If you are sick of the same old character defects and you are really ready for change, this is your sign to take action.
