“I'm sick and tired of playing this game for other people... God had a plan for me, and I just know that that's exactly what I needed.”
Shana's journey to sobriety is nothing short of remarkable. After discovering Pride Institute through a fellow inmate during an eight-month prison sentence, Shana faced a challenging road ahead. Despite continuing to use substances for another year post-release, she eventually found her way to Pride Institute's doors. Now, with five years of sobriety under her belt, Shana credits the program, the connections she made, and her deeply spiritual 96-year-old grandmother as key pillars in her recovery.
Hosted by Kaylee Hoaby and Luke Miller, this episode of 'Proud Voices' dives into Shana's story, highlighting the vital role of faith and community in overcoming addiction. Shana’s narrative is a testament to the power of support networks and the importance of finding inspiration in unexpected places. Her transformation from a struggling addict to a professional in the addiction treatment field offers hope and guidance to anyone on their own recovery journey.
Whether you're part of the LGBTQ+ community or seeking motivation for your own path to sobriety, Shana's story will resonate deeply. Tune in to hear how faith, family, and community can light the way to lasting recovery.
