Even when I was just drinking, my life was chaotic and unmanageable. And then eventually- you know it was the 80s and there was a lot of cocaine. That really brought me to my knees and I spent Four Years just smoking crack.
Imagine growing up in a whirlwind of instability and abuse, only to find yourself entangled in the grips of addiction as an adult. That's the raw and real journey of Nadia Bruce-Rawlings. In this episode of Recovery Survey, Nadia opens up about her tumultuous past and the hard-fought path to sobriety. From a childhood marked by an alcoholic father and abusive relationships to the dark days of cocaine addiction, her story is one of resilience and transformation.
Now settled in Nashville with her husband, six kids, and a dog, Nadia finds peace writing by the lake. Her recovery journey, which began in 1998, is deeply rooted in spirituality and the support she found in Alcoholics Anonymous. Nadia's candid reflections on practicing gratitude, focusing on the positives, and the power of forgiveness are not just inspiring but also practical for anyone on a similar path.
Today, she's a successful writer with books like 'Scars' and 'Driving In The Rain', using her experiences to help others navigate their own recovery. If you're looking for a tale of hope, grit, and the transformative power of self-work, Nadia's story is one you won't want to miss.
