Better Than Well: Why People in Recovery Make Exceptional Employees

And How They Can Help Transform & Build Your Organisation

"Every leadership team wants the same qualities: resilience, adaptability, loyalty, and problem-solving under pressure.

Not the stereotype—but individuals who’ve fought hard to rebuild their lives, who show up with purpose, and who don’t take a second chance for granted.

Research backs it up: people in recovery often outperform peers in loyalty, productivity, and morale-boosting impact.

Hiring them isn’t charity—it’s a competitive edge."
