Meet Our Founder
Women’s Recovery Leadership Foundation (WRLF) was started by Caroline Beidler, MSW. Caroline is a international recovery advocate, author, and leader who has walked the path of healing herself.
Caroline founded WRLF to create what she wished she’d had when she was younger: an empowering and encouraging space to help women in recovery step into the leadership roles they’ve been called to and equipped for.
