Sophie G.'s 16-Year Battle: From Chaos to Clarity on The SHAIR Recovery Podcast
I remember doing an exercise in rehab where they're like, okay, you're going to write down all the types of drugs that you've done and I'm like all right. Yeah, what the fuck were they teaching you in rehab?
Ever wondered what it takes to claw your way back from the depths of addiction? In this gripping episode of The SHAIR Recovery Podcast, host Omar Pinto sits down with Sophie G., who shares her tumultuous 16-year journey through substance abuse and her eventual road to recovery. Sophie started smoking pot at just 13, and by 19, she was entangled in a web of alcohol, Xanax, ecstasy, and cocaine.
Her life took a dark turn when her boyfriend died of cancer, leading her into a spiral of arrests, rehab stints, and even bankruptcy. But hitting rock bottom became the turning point she needed. Sophie opens up about the raw realities of rehab, the daily grind of staying sober, and the spiritual awakening that helped her reclaim her life. Her story is a testament to the power of resilience and the human spirit's capacity for change.
If you're looking for a tale of redemption that doesn't sugarcoat the struggle, this episode is a must-listen.
