Substance Abuse Advocate · Creator
Just this day
I'm Devon. I live in New Jersey with my dogs, Odin and Loki. Finding Peace is the name I gave the work of staying, and the place I put the things I wish I'd had on a hard day.
I'm a substance abuse advocate. That is not a neat story with a bow on it. I've been in it. I got tired of recovery content that only works if you're already doing well, and of apps that want an account, a streak, and a subscription before they'll sit with you.
Just this day. That is the whole assignment. Not a new personality. Not a perfect morning. A way to check in when the day is ordinary, and a way to get through the next twenty minutes when it isn't.
So that's what I build. A check-in you keep on your own phone. Nothing is sent to a server. A breath you can follow without a voice counting at you. A community if you want people, and real numbers if you need a person — including 988. I still say the blunt thing out loud. Recovery is allowed to be awkward. It is not a performance.
Just this day. That is the whole assignment.
What I mean by it
One day, not a new life
Morning, evening, or the middle of a bad hour. You don't have to feel grateful. You have to get through this day.
Yours, even offline
The check-in, the workbook, the sounds. No account standing between you and a hard moment. If you work with people, the same pages are there for your own toolkit.
In progress is welcome
Come in messy. Lurk if you want. Ask the question. I'm in New Jersey, the dogs are usually nearby, and nobody here has it finished.
