Anji Dickson, Operations Director at Steps to Recovery Homes and Konnect Wellness Center, embodies resilience, creativity, and compassion in everything she does. With a talent for orchestrating seamless operations and designing inspiring spaces, Anji’s mantra, “Harmony with Heart,” reflects her approach to both life and work.
Anji’s journey to recovery is a testament to her strength. After struggling with alcohol and prescription pill addiction for 35 years, she found hope and healing through Steps to Recovery. Anji’s path wasn’t easy—despite owning a successful pest control business in Scottsdale, addiction made it impossible to fully enjoy life. Multiple hospital visits, overdoses, and the loss of family support marked her past, but today, she stands as an example of transformation and hope.
Now over five years sober in 2025, Anji has completely changed her life. Leaving behind her high-powered career, she now manages Miracles Happen Resale Store, the nonprofit thrift store that funds Steps to Recovery’s rehabilitation programs. Her journey through the Steps to Recovery program helped her rebuild her self-confidence and discover her unique talents, which she now shares with the community.
Anji believes that true recovery goes beyond abstinence; it’s about building a life worth living. Her work with Steps to Recovery integrates life coaching, job development, and personal accountability, helping clients navigate life’s challenges while staying sober. She finds joy in the simple things—spending time outdoors, cooking, playing softball, and creating beautiful spaces.
Anji’s story is an inspiration to everyone at Konnect Wellness Center. Her dedication to helping others find their path to recovery is a cornerstone of the organization’s mission.
