Find what you love to do and then figure out how to make money doing it. And it's not so much, and this is why I think it's so important to identify that we come from all walks of life.
Sher Canada's story is a testament to the power of resilience and the possibility of transformation at any age. In this episode of 'Real Recovery Talk', hosts Tom Conrad and Ben sit down with Sher, a former client at Rock Recovery Center, who has been sober for over two and a half years.
Sher's journey is anything but ordinary; it’s filled with the highs of a successful career and the lows of battling addiction, all while navigating the chaos of growing up with an alcoholic mother. Sher's childhood was marred by her mother's alcoholism, which forced her into a caregiving role at just 14 years old. Despite these early challenges, Sher moved to Miami for college and climbed the ranks in the retail industry, eventually becoming a VP by age 30.
However, her professional success couldn't mask her personal struggles with alcohol. It wasn't until she decided to surrender completely that she found the path to lasting recovery. What makes Sher's story compelling is her unwavering commitment to finding purpose in sobriety. She shares how she avoided falling into complacency by continually seeking new ways to enrich her life.
Sher also discusses the profound impact of addiction on families and how she manages to balance her work life with her recovery journey. Sher's positive energy is contagious, and her insights are invaluable for anyone dealing with addiction or supporting someone who is. Her advice on finding purpose and maintaining a balanced life offers a beacon of hope for those on their own recovery paths. If you're seeking inspiration and practical wisdom on overcoming addiction, this episode is a must-listen.
