## Resource

I'm super excited to gather all of the deprogramming resources (including ones you haven't seen before!) in one space. It's all accessible from SobrietyBestie.com which is now like a deprogram 12 step hub. I've moved my website to a new location with my name Kirsten-Johnson.com so that Sobriety Bestie can live on as a one stop deprogramming extravaganza start to finish freedom experience for those navigating the mindf*ck of leaving AA, realizing they were in a recovery cult and wanting to reclaim their mind, autonomy and life. My hope is that people wanting to deprogram AA or 12 step can find Sobriety Bestie and move through their deconstruction journey at their own pace.
