A person to call first

Most of what a recovery coach does sounds unremarkable when you list it: a morning text, a ride planned in advance, a hard conversation rehearsed before it happens. None of it looks like a breakthrough. All of it is the difference between a bad afternoon and a bad month.

The measure we care about is simple: when something goes sideways, who does the client call first? When the answer is a person who knows the whole story and picks up, the sideways moments stay small. That is the entire job, and it is enough.
