If I can be that person, then I'll be that person, because it's so hard to get clean and to have anybody have any kind of faith in you.
What happens when you mix determination, honesty, and a bit of faith? You get Ramie Burtis' incredible journey to sobriety. In this episode of 'Sharing Our Stories', hosts Senen Slim Rodriguez and Shawn Jenkins sit down with Ramie, who opens up about her seven-year path to recovery. Her story is more than just overcoming addiction; it's about reclaiming her life and her role as a mother.
Ramie dives into the pivotal moments that shaped her recovery, starting with the life-changing support she received from drug court. This structured program provided her with the framework she needed to stay on track. But it wasn't just about external support; Ramie emphasizes the transformative power of honesty. She candidly shares how her progress only began when she started being truthful with herself and others. Setting goals became another cornerstone of Ramie's recovery.
Before sobriety, she admits she had no direction. Now, with clear objectives in mind, she's been able to rebuild her life step by step. Self-reflection played a crucial role too. Ramie talks about the importance of looking inward and being willing to make necessary changes, no matter how tough. Faith and a supportive network were also key players in her journey.
Ramie credits her faith for giving her the strength to push through the darkest times, and she highlights the invaluable support from friends, family, and fellow recovery warriors. For those in Colorado seeking help, she provides useful information on accessing resources like drug court and Narcotics Anonymous. Ramie's story is a testament to the power of perseverance and the human spirit.
It's an episode filled with practical advice, heartfelt moments, and a message of hope that will resonate with anyone facing similar battles.
