I took it, and it didn't change my views or teach me anything new, because I had already learned all this stuff before during my past addiction recovery. But I wanted to give you the feedback to say that I thought the growth path was excellent, and it is exactly the kind of stuff that will be super helpful for anyone who is struggling. Well done!
