Sara Jean Impaglia: Welding Her Way to Recovery and Purpose

I think the biggest thing I have now is just happiness. That's why I have no shame talking about it, just because I want other people to know that you shouldn't be ashamed and you're not a piece of shit.
What if the very thing you do for a living could also save your life? That's the incredible story of Sara Jean Impaglia, who turned her darkest moments into a beacon of hope through welding. Born and raised in Central New York, Sara's life took a dramatic turn when she discovered welding at her lowest point.
This episode of Recovery Survey dives into Sara's journey of staying heroin-free for a decade, thanks to the discipline and focus welding brought into her life. But it's not just about the craft; it's about how structure, positive affirmations, meditation, and prayer have been her lifelines. Sara openly discusses the stigma surrounding addiction and mental health, shedding light on the impact it has on individuals and communities.
Her story is a powerful reminder that recovery is not just possible but achievable for anyone willing to take that first step. Whether you're in recovery yourself, supporting someone who is, or just curious about the transformative power of finding purpose, Sara's tale is sure to inspire.
