I just I want to thank you for everything you've shared, because there is going to be somebody that hears this and connects with your story and sees your positivity and turning your circumstances into into gold and other people's lives.
Imagine hitting rock bottom and then using that experience to lift others up. That's exactly what Tina Perry did. In this heartfelt episode of the 'Recovery Matters! Podcast', Tina opens up about her harrowing journey through addiction, including a traumatic event that pushed her to the brink. She doesn't shy away from discussing the painful moments, including her daughter's battle with substance use and the heartbreak of losing her. But Tina's story doesn't end in despair.
Instead, she channels her grief into action by founding a nonprofit aimed at helping those in similar situations. Tina also sheds light on the often harsh judgment faced by individuals seeking medical help for addiction and how it can have devastating consequences. Her advocacy work is driven by a deep desire to improve the treatment and support available to those struggling with substance use.
This episode is a raw, honest conversation that underscores the power of resilience and the importance of community support. Whether you're on your own recovery journey or supporting someone who is, Tina's story is a powerful reminder that hope and change are possible.
