Jen Wylde: Rock Radio to Recovery Advocate
“I just didn't feel like I fit in, I didn't feel good enough. So, going back a little bit to the rock and roll thing like where I grew up and my brother and the music, we lived near a marriott in Beechwood, Ohio, and where I lived there was that hotel.”
Jen Wylde's life has been a rollercoaster, filled with highs and lows that many can only imagine. A national rock radio personality, Jen lived the quintessential rock 'n' roll lifestyle, complete with all its temptations and pitfalls. But her story is not just about the chaos; it's about the triumph of finding sobriety after years of struggle.
In this episode of 'Surviving Opioids,' host Jeff Simone sits down with Jen to explore her incredible journey from addiction to becoming a beacon of hope for others battling similar demons. Jen's candidness about her past is both raw and inspiring. She opens up about her early years, growing up idolizing rock stars and eventually diving headfirst into a career that was as exhilarating as it was destructive.
Despite multiple attempts to get clean, it wasn't until a near-fatal overdose in front of her son that she finally decided enough was enough. Now three years sober, Jen works in the treatment industry and is dedicated to spreading the message of recovery. The episode covers a wide range of topics, from the allure and dangers of the rock 'n' roll lifestyle to the importance of community and support in recovery.
Jen also delves into alternative healing practices like Reiki and the role of exercise in maintaining sobriety. Her story serves as a powerful reminder that recovery is not just possible but achievable, one day at a time. If you're seeking an episode filled with honesty, vulnerability, and hope, Jen Wylde's story is a must-listen.
