Nadia Bruce-Rawlings: From Chaos to Clarity in Recovery

Even when I was just drinking, even when it wasn't rock bottom, cracked out, homeless, drug addict, when I was just a drunk, my life was chaotic and unmanageable.
Picture this: a life filled with global travels, a bustling career in the film industry, and a hidden battle with addiction. That's the story of Nadia Bruce-Rawlings, who opens up about her journey in this episode of Recovery Survey. Growing up in various countries before settling in Los Angeles, Nadia's life seemed glamorous on the outside but was marred by chaos and substance abuse.
Now, living by a serene lake in Nashville with her husband, six kids, and a dog, she reflects on her past and the steps she took towards recovery. Since 1998, Nadia has been sober, overcoming not just addiction but also an abusive upbringing. Her candid conversation with host Brett Morris dives deep into the gritty realities of her life and how she found solace in writing.
Through her books, 'Scars' and 'Driving In The Rain', Nadia shares raw and cathartic stories that resonate with anyone who's faced similar struggles. This episode isn't just about addiction; it's about resilience, the importance of family support, and the power of gratitude. Whether you're on your own recovery journey or supporting someone who is, Nadia's story offers a beacon of hope and a reminder that it's never too late to turn your life around.
