SheRecovers: Taryn Strong's Journey to Healing and Community

At the core, we are all the same... Everyone is recovering from something.
Imagine facing your deepest traumas and turning them into a source of strength for others. That's exactly what Taryn Strong, co-founder of SheRecovers, has done. In this episode of the Buddhist Recovery Network Podcast, Taryn opens up about her personal journey through relapse, trauma, and inner child work, all of which led her to create a sanctuary for women and non-binary folks in recovery.
SheRecovers is more than just a program; it's a movement dedicated to providing diverse pathways to healing and fostering a sense of community. Taryn's story begins in her 20s when she realized that coping mechanisms like disordered eating and codependency were masking deeper issues like low self-esteem and childhood trauma. A relapse became the catalyst for her to confront these underlying problems head-on.
This episode offers a raw and honest look at how she navigated her recovery journey and why she believes that 'at the core, we are all the same'. SheRecovers is designed to be a safe haven where everyone, regardless of their background or identity, can find support. The program is student-led and community-driven, emphasizing co-creation and inclusivity.
It offers a wide range of healing modalities, from yoga and meditation to trauma-informed classes, allowing participants to choose what works best for them. One of the key themes discussed in this episode is the importance of diversity in recovery spaces. Taryn and her team are committed to making SheRecovers inclusive, reaching out to underrepresented communities and forming partnerships with organizations that support diverse groups.
This isn't just a program for white, middle-class women; it's a welcoming space for anyone recovering from anything. Tune in to hear Taryn Strong's inspiring story and learn how SheRecovers is changing the face of recovery by creating a community where everyone can heal together.
