Why We Disclose Affiliations

Our Commitment to Transparency

At Progressing Not Perfecting, I believe in the importance of transparency in affiliate marketing. My affiliate disclosure is designed to inform you that I receive a commission when you purchase products through links on my site. This practice helps me sustain my operations and continue delivering quality content. I am committed to recommending only products and services that align with my values and that I genuinely believe will benefit my audience. By being open about our affiliations, I aim to foster trust and integrity in our community.

Amazon Affiliate Disclosure

At Progressing Not Perfecting (PNP), transparency, authenticity, and trust are of the utmost importance. This disclosure is intended to inform you that I participate in affiliate programs, including the Amazon Services LLC Associates  Program and the Amazon Influencer Program. These are affiliate advertising programs designed to provide a means for sites to earn advertising fees by linking to Amazon.com and affiliated sites.

How It Works

When you click on an affiliate link to a product or service on this website and make a purchase, I earn a small commission at no additional cost to you. This helps support the work and resources provided on my blog, allowing me to continue creating valuable content for my readers. Please note that I only recommend products and services that I have personally used, researched, or genuinely believe will benefit my audience.

Affiliate Links and Recommendations

Affiliate links may appear in blog posts, sidebar banners, newsletters, and other areas of the site. While I aim to provide accurate and up-to-date information, product availability, pricing, and terms can change, so please double-check any details directly on Amazon.com or the linked website.

Why This Disclosure Matters

It’s important to me that my readers understand the nature of the relationships I have with these affiliate programs. By using affiliate links, you’re supporting this blog and its mission without any additional cost to you. I deeply appreciate your support as it helps me to continue providing great content, resources, tips, and inspiration for addiction recovery, personal development, and spiritual growth.

Affiliate Disclosure FAQs

Here are some common questions about how affiliate links work on our site and what they mean for you.

What is an affiliate link?

An affiliate link is a unique URL that tracks the referral from our website to a partner’s site. If you make a purchase through this link, we may earn a commission at no additional cost to you.

How do affiliate links benefit me?

Affiliate links provide you with access to products and services I recommend based on my expertise and personal experience with said products. I only recommend products my family and friends use and love or that I have extensively researched just for our readers and members.

Does using affiliate links cost me more?

No, using affiliate links does not increase the price of the product or service. The merchant pays the small commission I earn as a reward for referring you to their site, allowing me to keep providing you with great content.

background

They said I wouldn’t make it.
I spent two decades trapped in the revolving door of addiction and incarceration. I buried more friends than I can count. I should’ve been a statistic—but somehow, I’m still here. And that means something.

I didn’t just survive—I transformed. I clawed my way out of a near-lifelong heroin addiction, rebuilt from rock bottom, and made a promise to turn my pain into a purpose.

If I can rise from that?
So. Can. You.

Let’s make this life count—together.

Follow Me

“You are loved just for being who you are, just for existing. You don’t have to do anything to earn it. Your shortcomings, your lack of self-esteem, physical perfection, or social and economic success—none of that matters. No one can take this love away from you, and it will always be here.”

-Ram Dass
