Dara Meyer CASAC, SRCD
Coach
Location: Garden City, New York, United States
My name is Dara Meyer and I am a woman in long-term recovery which means I have not had a drink or drug since January 2nd, 2011. I am been an event producer for over 25 years. I worked for The National Football League, MTV and Billboard to name a few. I got involved in the recovery world in 2015 when I was asked to help produce UNITE To Face Addiction. This event was to bring together 25,000 at The National Mall in Washington D. C. to show we are people in recovery who do not believe in stigma and shame.
I was fortunately introduced to SHE RECOVERS after that event and realized there was an entire community of women who wanted to become their best selves and I have been involved ever since. I feel blessed to be a recovery coach.

After years of suffering in silence with the way I looked and felt, years of drinking I found a solution and that solution was to stop drinking and hating myself and find love.
