I had some abusive stepmoms when I was younger and people would be like, oh my god, it makes sense- on why you are...and I spent my entire life being a victim. I had to have some surgeries and then we have A Nice Seven Year stint of hard narcotics, um.
Mary Jane 'MJ' Watman has a story that will make you sit up and listen. In this episode of the Illuminate Recovery Podcast, MJ takes us on a journey from her days in juvenile prison to finding sobriety and reclaiming her life. She opens up about the power of taking responsibility for her own emotional well-being and the importance of moving away from victimhood to a place of committed sobriety.
MJ also challenges us to rethink how we talk about our children and circumstances, shedding light on the trap of possessive language that can hold us back. But MJ's story doesn't stop there. She shares her inspiring work with women coming out of the prison system, helping them navigate their new lives with hope and determination.
Her belief that the world judges us by our actions, not our intentions, is a powerful reminder that change is possible no matter where you start. Listeners will find MJ's journey both relatable and motivating. Whether you're dealing with your own struggles or supporting someone who is, this episode offers valuable insights and practical advice. Tune in to hear MJ's candid reflections and discover how taking control of your emotional well-being can lead to a brighter, sober future.
