Statement of Purpose
Welcome to Free to Be Me Recovery. I am here to walk with you on your journey toward freedom from substance use, offering support grounded in empathy, lived experience, and professional recovery coaching.
Having lived through addiction and embraced long-term recovery, I know firsthand that change is possible—and it begins with hope and connection. At Free to Be Me Recovery, my mission is to provide you with personalized coaching, peer support, and mentorship that honors your unique story and helps you rediscover your strength and purpose.
I believe recovery is not just about stopping substance use but about reclaiming your authentic self—building resilience, fostering self-compassion, and creating a life where you feel whole and empowered. My approach is rooted in compassion, accountability, and a commitment to reducing stigma toward those struggling with addiction.
As a certified recovery coach passionate about professionalizing recovery services in Ontario, I also advocate for accessible, high-quality recovery coaching that meets you where you are. Whether you’re just starting your journey or seeking ongoing support, I offer a safe, non-judgmental space to explore your goals and develop practical steps toward lasting change.
Together, we will move beyond survival toward thriving—helping you build a fulfilling life that reflects your values, dreams, and strengths.
Recovery starts with one conversation. I invite you to take that step today. Let’s find your freedom—one moment, one choice, one day at a time.
Introducing Bob Ivanoff
Welcome to Free To Be Me Recovery Coaching! My personal battle with addiction lasted nearly two decades, a journey filled with challenges but also profound growth and transformation. Through dedicated guidance from others in recovery and supported effort, I achieved sobriety and discovered a passion for helping others find their own path. With almost eight years in recovery, I leverage my experience and insight to guide others through the complexities of addiction towards a purposeful and fulfilling life .
