Jenn Belt: From Early Addiction to Advocacy and Transformation

I sought out odyssey house because I knew I didn't want that life anymore.
Meet Jenn Belt, a woman whose story is nothing short of remarkable. Starting with Black Velvet at just 8 years old and moving on to cocaine by 11, Jenn's early years were marked by substance abuse and turmoil. By 18, she found herself in jail, and later, she served a significant 46-month sentence in federal prison. But Jenn's journey didn't end there.
Today, she's a college student studying forensic social work, has regained custody of her children, and works as a case manager at Odyssey House. In this episode of 'Odyssey House Journals', hosted by Randall Carlisle, Jenn opens up about her past struggles and the pivotal moments that led to her transformation. She candidly discusses how federal prison became an unexpected turning point, offering her the clarity and motivation needed to change her life.
Jenn also shares the role of spirituality and gratitude in her recovery, providing a beacon of hope for anyone facing similar challenges. Her story is a powerful testament to resilience and the possibility of change, no matter how dire the circumstances.
