I can see that my recovery capital is very high and I have a life worth living.
Tiffany Naccarato’s life took a dramatic turn from being a stay-at-home mom and PTA president to facing criminal charges and running from the law. In this episode of 'Odyssey House Journals', hosted by Rachel Santizo, Tiffany opens up about her tumultuous journey through addiction and the transformative path to recovery. Her story is a vivid reminder that addiction doesn't discriminate—it can affect anyone, regardless of their background or social status.
But Tiffany’s narrative is also one of hope, resilience, and the incredible power of support systems. Family and peer support played a crucial role in Tiffany’s recovery. Despite initially feeling like she was just going through the motions during her first assessment, having her mom and sister by her side made all the difference. This personal experience fuels her current work as a recovery coach, where she witnesses firsthand how peer support can help individuals and families heal together.
Tiffany also discusses the concept of building 'recovery capital'—the resources and strengths that help maintain sobriety. She emphasizes that recovery is not just about abstaining from substances but also about nurturing physical, mental, social, and spiritual well-being. Each domain we strengthen adds to our recovery capital, providing a more robust foundation for a sober life. Community involvement is another key theme in Tiffany’s story.
She highlights the importance of events like Recovery Day, which celebrate those in recovery and offer resources to the community. Tiffany’s excitement about participating in this year's event is palpable, and she encourages everyone to join and learn more about the support available. Throughout the episode, Tiffany’s passion for recovery and peer support shines brightly. Her journey underscores that with the right resources and a strong support network, recovery is not just possible—it’s achievable.
