If something is working for you, stick with it, and if you're working a program that may not be working for you, it's okay to try other things like just don't give up when it comes to recovery.
Imagine battling addiction to heroin and meth, relapsing multiple times, and still finding the strength to turn your life around. That's the story of Chauncie Beaston, a TikTok influencer with over 23,000 followers, who joins Daniel Unmanageable on 'Hard Knox Talks: Sober Stories. Real Talk'. Beaston's journey is a rollercoaster of struggles and triumphs. She shares how she went from the depths of addiction to owning a cleaning company and her own home.
But that's not all—she's also using her platform to challenge the stigma around substance use and promote harm reduction. With her TikTok account 'Live.Laugh.Naloxone', Chauncie has become a vocal advocate for naloxone distribution and harm reduction programs. Half of the proceeds from her merchandise sales go to the Health Brigade Harm Reduction Program, while the other half supports her newly founded nonprofit, the Where You’re At Foundation.
In this episode, Chauncie opens up about the harsh realities of addiction, the importance of individualized treatment, and how faith played a crucial role in her recovery. She also discusses the benefits and challenges of suboxone use and the dangers of methamphetamine. Her candid conversation with Daniel sheds light on the power of harm reduction and the ongoing battle to stay sober. If you're looking for a story of resilience and advocacy, this episode is a must-listen.
