Amber Mabe: From Rock Bottom to Reclaiming Life

I think if people are coming to this place and they're seeking help, obviously there's a part of them that's wanting that help, and we need to learn how to like, connect with it better so that they can come back and pursue the help that they need.
Amber Mabe's life was picture-perfect until addiction turned it upside down. At nearly 29, she was a successful graphic designer with a thriving business. But then, painkillers prescribed after a car accident led her down a dark path. Amber lost her business, her children, and even herself to addiction. She found herself homeless, living in her van, and using drugs alone. But this isn't just a tale of loss—it's one of incredible resilience and redemption.
Amber's journey back to life is nothing short of inspiring. Through rehab, therapy, and unwavering determination, she fought her way back from the depths of addiction. Her story underscores the importance of seeking help and the power of community support. If you're grappling with addiction or know someone who is, Amber's story is a beacon of hope, showing that recovery is not just possible but achievable.
