Vanessa Guild: From Rock Bottom to Mindful Recovery

Vanessa explains how addiction and trauma can be converted into love and forgiveness.
Ever wondered how someone can turn a life of trauma and addiction into one of love and mindfulness? Vanessa Guild's story on Sober Shares is nothing short of extraordinary. Growing up with a backdrop of family trauma and a painful divorce, Vanessa found herself spiraling into the depths of addiction. Her journey hit rock bottom in New Orleans, where a late-night moment of clarity became the turning point she desperately needed.
Vanessa's path to recovery wasn't just about quitting alcohol; it was about embracing forgiveness and mindfulness. Through Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) and Al-Anon, she came to terms with her addiction and her family's history of alcoholism. These support systems helped her heal from past wounds and find a new way to live. Today, Vanessa is a mindfulness instructor and life coach, guiding others on their own paths to success and fulfillment.
Her story is a powerful reminder that recovery is possible, no matter how deep the scars. She teaches that addiction and trauma can be transformed into sources of love and forgiveness. Tune in to hear Vanessa's full journey on Sober Shares. Her experiences offer not just inspiration but practical insights into how mindfulness and coaching can aid in recovery. Whether you're struggling with addiction yourself or supporting someone who is, Vanessa's story is a beacon of hope.
