Colleen Clifford is an author, speaker, coach, and commercial fisherwoman. As a former binge drinker and suicide survivor, she explores the intersection of grief, resilience, and the hidden patterns we often use to cope. She understands high-stress environments and the quiet ways we can deny ourselves.
