Gimme More Em

I need a few real ones with Android phones 👀

I’m in the final stages of launching my app, RecoveryPal — but Google hit me with a “not enough engagement” during testing… so now I’ve got 14 more days to prove people will actually use it.

So I’m looking for a small group of people who are down to help me bring this thing to life 🙌

🔥 What I need:
• Android users only
• Willing to download the app through a private test link
• Use it for about 5–10 minutes a day for the next 14 days
• Give honest feedback (nothing fancy, just your real thoughts)

💡 What you get:
• Early access before launch
• A chance to help shape the app
• My eternal gratitude (and probably some inside jokes along the way 😂)

This app is built around recovery, accountability, and actually showing up for yourself… so if that speaks to you, you’ll probably enjoy it anyway.

If you’re down, comment or message me “ANDROID” and I’ll send you the invite + get your email added to the test group.

Let’s get this thing out of testing jail and into the world 🚀

Recovery isn’t one big heroic moment.
It’s a thousand tiny ones that nobody claps for.

It’s Tuesday at 2:17 PM when your brain whispers, “One time wouldn’t hurt.”
It’s standing in a grocery store aisle realizing the thing you used to buy every week… doesn’t go in your cart anymore.
It’s relearning how to exist in your own life.

After spending time in recovery, I’ve noticed something strange.

Some parts are shockingly easy.
Some parts feel like climbing a mountain in flip-flops.

The 5 Easiest Parts of Recovery (for me):
1. Wanting a better life.
Once you see what addiction has taken, the desire for something different burns pretty bright.
2. Recognizing the damage.
At some point the denial cracks, and you can’t unsee the truth.
3. Connecting with other people in recovery.
Turns out there are a lot of us walking around quietly rebuilding our lives.
4. Celebrating small wins.
First sober weekend. First honest conversation. First time you handle stress without numbing it.
5. Hope.
It sneaks in slowly… but when it shows up, it’s powerful.

But then there are the parts nobody warns you about.

The 5 Hardest Parts of Recovery:
1. Your brain still remembers everything.
The habits, the triggers, the shortcuts to escape.
2. Learning how to sit with emotions you used to numb.
Anger. Shame. Anxiety. Grief. They all show up eventually.
3. Rebuilding trust.
With family. With friends. With yourself.
4. The quiet moments.
When there’s no chaos anymore and you have to figure out who you actually are.
5. Doing the work every single day.
Recovery isn’t an event. It’s maintenance.

Some days it’s empowering.
Some days it’s exhausting.

But here’s the truth: no one should have to do it alone.

The thing that’s helped me the most has been having tools, structure, and support built for people actually living through recovery day by day.

And honestly, I couldn’t have done it without the help of the RecoveryPal app.

Just finished this blanket for one of my husbands co workers! Love how fast these are to make and it’s very mindless so I don’t have to count at all!!

I’ve always loved caterpillars. There’s just something about them—those little inching bodies, their bright colors, and the way they turn into something completely different with time. I’ve especially had a soft spot for The Very Hungry Caterpillar since I was little, so it felt only right that he’d show up in my crochet world eventually.

Lately, I’ve been seeing those cool fidget toys made from 3D-printed plastic cups—you know, the ones that bend and click as you play with them? I love the concept, but I wanted to try putting my own handmade spin on it. So I challenged myself to create a crocheted version—something soft, colorful, and fun to fidget with, without using any plastic.

And here he is: my very own Hungry Caterpillar fidget toy! He’s full of color, squishy segments, and a bit of nostalgia. He’s not for young kiddos due to the small parts, but he’s perfect for fidgeting hands, desks, or even just sitting cute on a shelf. I had so much fun making him and can’t wait to create a few more.

If you love handmade toys, sensory tools, or just have a soft spot for childhood favorites—he might just crawl his way into your heart 💚
