Renee's Journey: From Addiction to Hope and Motherhood

So, when I was released from those [treatment centers], I still that did not know how to live my life, you know, and that was just where I had to make a change. You know, I couldn't just say something that was written down over the psych ward phone to do my step work, because I had said that shit numerous times before and it didn't mean anything.
Ever faced a crossroads where every choice seems daunting? Renee did, and her story is a testament to resilience and the power of recovery. In this episode of 'The Sober Unicorn', host Holden S sits down with Renee, who bravely shares her experiences with addiction and the night she made a heart-wrenching decision between using and her son. Her candid recounting of that pivotal moment offers a raw look into the depths of addiction. But Renee's story doesn't end there.
She delves into her journey through recovery, highlighting the immense strength she found in herself and the unwavering love she has for her child. As she navigated the choppy waters of postpartum depression and the stress of motherhood, Renee discovered a supportive community that became her lifeline. She talks about the profound impact of 12-step meetings and how leaning on others helped her stay on track. One of the most transformative parts of Renee's recovery was her spiritual awakening.
Through prayer and meditation, she found a higher power that gave her the courage to let go of her past and embrace a new path. Her story is a beacon of hope for anyone struggling with addiction, proving that no matter how deep the darkness, there's always a way to find light. This episode is a must-listen for anyone seeking inspiration, whether you're in recovery or supporting someone who is.
