About Finding North: A Journey from Addict to Advocate:
~Amazon Reviewer
“This book was an exceptional read, from start to finish. Marilyn Davis is an eloquent writer who has a remarkable ability to deliver her message in a way that keeps readers begging for more.”
“Finding North is about her life, her success, and her unique perspective on addiction”…
Marilyn is a Certified Addiction Recovery Empowerment Specialist, recently celebrating thirty-two years of abstinence-based recovery. From 1990-2011, she opened and managed North House, an award-winning residential facility for women.
Before reaching these milestones, she was a desperate woman on drugs, managing rock bands at night, pretending to be okay, but ultimately giving up on herself, losing her husband, children, family, and friends due to her addiction.
Early in her recovery, a chance encounter with Gray Hawk, a 74-year old Native American, showed her that healing would include looking within, taking steps, and creating a house of healing for other women.
This memoir is that journey…
