Janet grew up in a troubled home. Her relationships with her mother and father were far from perfect, and she was horribly bullied in school. At age 17, a debilitating eating disorder took her over, along with other addictions and disorders. But she did the work and now enjoys a healthy, happy, non-addicted life.
Janet’s struggles have run the gamut from covert and emotional incest to sexual assault, weight gain, and painful relationships, and she knows what it’s like to not be in control of your body. She has fought the battles and won, and now she is ready to help you do the work with her ’12-Step Graduate Program” in which she lays out easy-to-follow, moment-by-moment instructions, all with a sense of lightness, wit, and humor. She believes that through laughing at our foibles and enjoying the bumpy ride, half the battle is won!
Janet not only healed herself of addiction, she has now helped dozens of others heal of addiction, depression, and other disorders rooted in childhood trauma – with miraculous results.
After 35 years’ experience with 12-Step Programs and extensive study in healing modalities such as Journaling, Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT), and Inner Child Work, Janet has healed herself of addiction and is now ready to help you. Janet does not have a treat-the-symptom, Band-Aid type of approach: Her method permanently removes your addiction through finding the cause and solving the problem once and for all, and then you get your life back. Rather than constantly struggling and being a “recovering addict”, Janet helps you get to the cause of your addiction and dismantle it.
“Comedian Janet Stegman Launches her Fun and Interactive Book and Website to Help People with Addiction Start Their Journey to Recovery
“Sandcastles: Tools for Letting Go of Addiction and the Pain of the Past” is a detailed minute-by-minute instruction manual for letting go of any kind of addiction and any mental or emotional pain still remaining from the past, with a method for releasing mental or emotional pain as it comes up in the moment. Janet Stegman demonstrates the success of her program by telling stories from her own life about her experience with addiction and emotional pain and how she healed herself of them. As the author is a stand-up comedian, you can imagine how easy the book is to digest, as she inserts her sense of humor throughout the book. She feels that when we can laugh at ourselves, half the battle is won. “Sandcastles” is written in an organic, conversational, down-to-earth style so that, from beginning to end, the reader is riveted, and before they know it, has imbibed breakthrough techniques for living a happier, more enriched life.
Rather than constantly struggling and being a “recovering addict” and “feeling depressed”, “Sandcastles” helps the reader get to the root cause of their addiction and emotional pain and let go of them. Janet describes how she did the work and now enjoys a healthy, happy, non-addicted life and is now ready to guide others down the same path. “Sandcastles” offer tools such as journaling, tapping and inner child work – the tools she used to heal herself of debilitating addictions to food, men and relationships, and the need to control others. She shares the stories of her own debilitating addictions and pain from the past and the step-by-step actions she took to let go of them. The reader is then given tools with which to deal with life’s day-to-day challenges and enable themselves to ride the roller coaster of life with confidence, laughter and feeling safe.
The author’s struggles have run the gamut from covert and emotional incest to sexual assault, weight gain, a debilitating eating disorder, and painful relationships, and she knows the pain of not being in control of your body. She fought the battles and won, and now she is ready to help her readers do the work with her “12-Step Graduate Program”, which she lays out in detailed, easy-to-follow instructions, with as much lightness, wit, and humor as a book about healing addiction can hold. She believes that simply by laughing at our foibles and enjoying life’s bumpy ride, the road to recover can be palatable, and even fun.
Janet not only healed herself of addiction, she now, through her counseling practice consisting of “healing sessions”, has helped dozens of others heal their addiction, depression, and other disorders rooted in childhood trauma – with miraculous results.
Look for Stegman’s next two, soon-to-be-released, books entitled, “My Mother the Comedian…I Mean Superior Court Judge,” a compilation of funny stories from the life and bench of Judge Lillian Stevens, and “How to Raise a Healthy Happy Child,” an easy to follow instruction manual for how to turn a potentially daunting and unsure childrearing experience into one that is uplifting, fun-filled, and entertaining – a win-win for both parent and child.”
