I found purpose for myself there, which is really weird, you know, in a basement of a police farm.
Cherice Gull’s story is nothing short of gripping. In this episode of Odyssey House Journals, she recounts her journey from being busted at the border with over four kilos of meth to finding sobriety and purpose. Hosted by TV news legend Randall Carlisle, this episode takes you on a rollercoaster ride through Cherice's life. Growing up in Salt Lake City, she didn’t touch drugs until her late twenties.
A tumultuous relationship led her down a dark path, culminating in a desperate attempt to smuggle drugs across the U.S.-Mexico border.

Now five years sober, Cherice is dedicated to helping others find their way to recovery. Her tale is filled with raw emotion, candid reflections, and a touch of humour, making it an episode you won't want to miss.
