Here is the instagram post for your reel!when I get the opportunity to interview an Addy Free community member, I prioritize that more than any specialized doctor—because we’ve lived it, and we know what it’s like. That’s why I’m SO excited to have on Hayley Carver, who is officially 11 months Addy Free (we recorded this a month ago). WELCOME 🩵When I first realized I had a problem with Addy, all I wanted was to find someone else who felt like I did.Was I crazy for thinking I was addicted?Was it normal to take this much just to function?Why did no one else seem as obsessed as me?I just wanted to feel:✨ Seen✨ Heard✨ ValidatedThat’s why I started the Addy Free community—and now, a year and a half later, there are 11 of us, all in different stages of the journey, showing up weekly to support each other.Hayley was one of the first to find this podcast and join the Monday Zooms. Her story is real, relatable, and a powerful reminder that the first year is full of growth—and of facing that inner voice telling you to go back. But you can handle life without Addy.
