It's about being unapologetic and demanding what we want.
Imagine turning the darkest moments of your life into a beacon of hope for others. That's exactly what Jaana Woodbury has done. As the Vice President of Marketing for Safe Harbor Treatment Center for Women, Jaana's journey is a testament to resilience and the power of appreciation in addiction recovery. This episode of 'Let The Journey Begin' sees hosts Hilary Roberts and Jason Wahler sitting down with Jaana to explore her incredible story.
From her early days experimenting with marijuana to the severe addictions that followed, Jaana opens up about the depths of her struggles, including using hard drugs in front of her young children. But her story doesn't end there. Jaana's family was featured on Sesame Street's 'Parental Addiction' series, which won a Daytime Emmy for its poignant portrayal of family systems in addiction recovery.
Throughout the episode, Jaana highlights the importance of gratitude, the impact of codependency on family dynamics, and why self-care is crucial in the recovery process. She also delves into attachment theory and shares insights from her work at Northbound Treatment Center. Jaana's experiences are not just about overcoming addiction but about advocating for better mental health and addiction support systems. Her reflections offer listeners valuable lessons in resilience and the transformative power of appreciating life's small victories.
