Hope. Healing.
One Honest Day at a Time.

Aloha Reader,

This week, we want to shine a light on someone whose journey reminds us what resilience, love, and second chances really look like.

Brian Harris doesn’t pull any punches. In his new book, Stop Digging, Start Living: A Drunk’s Journey from Rock Bottom to Redemption and Sobriety, he invites readers into the raw, unfiltered truth of addiction, grief, and recovery . . . and more importantly, into the hope that lives on the other side.

With honesty and grit, Brian shares how he lost nearly everything to alcoholism and how he fought, one day at a time, to rebuild a life worth living. From the unimaginable loss of his daughter Emily to the rise of the #LiveLikeEmily movement that has now raised over $750,000 for survivors of domestic violence, Brian’s story is a powerful testimony that it’s never too late to climb out of the hole.
