Healing With Hope: A Mother's Journey Of Starting Over

On September 2nd, I will celebrate one full year clean and sober—free from alcohol, drugs, and any mind-altering substances. This milestone represents the hardest, most transformative year of my life, filled with challenges, growth, and self-discovery.

I’m ready to continue building a life of healing, faith, strength, and independence, growing stronger each day and creating stability for myself and my daughter Lily—showing her what the power of determination and resilience looks like, and that anything you set your mind to is possible.

I would be truly honored, grateful, and overjoyed if you could help me through this journey we call life—supporting me as Lily and I continue to grow. Donations would go toward application or move-in fees, home essentials, the first few months of living costs, utilities setup, and safety items, helping us create a stable and nurturing environment. I understand not everyone can contribute financially, but even sharing my story with friends, family, or your community would mean so much and help me reach people who can make a difference. Every bit of support brings us one step closer to building the life I have been working so hard for.

I will be posting updates regularly so donors can see how impactful their contributions are, and there is an Instagram page coming soon where everyone can follow along and see our progress. God is good.

P.S. If anyone could use a helping hand with house cleaning, I’d be happy to help! Also, my birthday is coming up on August 27th ✨—another little reason to celebrate hope, growth, and new beginnings!

Thank you for helping me change my life!

With love,

Carly Bransom

All this hard work is for you baby!
