Terra Carbert: Betting on Recovery and Empowering Women

I founded Ambitious Addicts because it is my dream to help as many women in recovery as possible know that they are worthy and deserving of the life they dream of living.
What do you do when gambling takes over your life? Terra Carbert faced this exact challenge and came out the other side stronger than ever. In this episode of 'Recovery Survey', hosted by Brett Morris, Terra opens up about her journey from the depths of gambling addiction to founding Ambitious Addicts, a community that supports women in recovery. Terra's story is a raw and honest account of hitting rock bottom and finding the strength to climb back up.
With the help of a 12-step program and therapy, she managed to overcome her addiction and now dedicates her life to helping other women realize they too deserve a life free from addiction. Terra shares the shame and guilt that accompanied her addiction, but also the incredible relief and empowerment she felt through therapy and support groups. She emphasizes that recovery isn't one-size-fits-all; different people need different tools and coping mechanisms.
Terra also talks about the evolution of her Self-Discovery Sisterhood, a private podcast community for women in recovery that has grown to focus on broader personal development. Her story is a testament to the power of community, therapy, and the right support systems. If you're looking for an inspiring tale of resilience and the importance of breaking the stigma around addiction, this episode is a must-listen.
