Summary
In this episode, we have Jeannine. She had a great childhood growing up in a lot of places but settled in Georgia. She opened up about her struggles, recounting how her parents' divorce sent her spiralling into self-destructive behaviour and later she would struggle with cocaine, alcohol and heroin addiction. After many run-ins with the law and ending up homeless living in a dog house, she eventually found herself in a sober living and began to process. The challenges she faced transformed her perception of life, shaping her into a grateful and resilient individual. Today, she embraces her addiction journey as a part of her life that has made her better. Sober since January 15, 2015, this is Jeannine’s story on the Sober Motivation podcast.
