Anna ATX

I’m a mother, formerly a wife, a sister, a friend, and an English major who spent over 25 years in software development. I’m a writer, painter, and autodidactic student of life. I’m a recovery coach. And I like talking with people who are enjoying life without alcohol or drugs. Sobriety is more than abstinence; it’s discovering, accepting, and embracing the real you.
