Catch Diane Schroeder hosting Amanda McKoy Flanagan this week on The Fire Inside Her, where the two explore the intersection of self-care, spirituality, and personal transformation. Amanda candidly talks about her journey of sobriety and the significant role of the 12-step program in shaping her recovery process. From discussing the importance of a plant-based Diet and Meditation to humorously navigating health and wellness routines, the episode offers a refreshing and honest perspective on living a balanced life. Amanda’s story is also a powerful testament to overcoming generational Trauma, and she explains how writing has helped her change limiting beliefs and create empowering narratives. Whether you’re interested in energy work, grief Coaching, or simply seeking inspiration, this episode has something for everyone.

Amanda McKoy Flanagan is a dedicated community advocate and sober living proponent based in Castle Rock, Colorado. In 2015, upon moving to the town, Amanda was inspired to open a 12 Step Recovery Clubhouse, driven by her own journey in sobriety. Despite facing significant challenges due to the town’s longstanding small-town dynamics and a lack of organized support structures, she remained resilient. With a population of about 55,000, Castle Rock was in need of more cohesive recovery resources. Amanda’s perseverance and dedication to creating a supportive environment for those in recovery reflect her commitment to community and wellness.
