I don't know what it is, but I know it's not fair.
Imagine navigating the tumultuous waters of addiction and emerging not just sober, but as a powerful advocate for change. That's the journey Angela Mallette shares in this episode of 'Recovery Lab'. Angela, a certified provider with the Department of Mental Health, opens up about her own struggles with addiction and the pivotal moments that led her to recovery. But her story doesn't stop there.
Angela dives into the often harsh realities of the US treatment system, where dignity is sometimes in short supply. She passionately discusses her efforts to reform these systems and highlights the importance of advocacy in making a real difference. From training law enforcement officers on how to use Narcan to reviving overdose victims, Angela's work is both inspiring and vital. She’s even managed to train every law enforcement officer in Mississippi on overdose response!
Angela's commitment to building community impact shines through as she invests in treatment centers and supports those battling addiction. Sober for seven years, she continues to renew her dedication to sobriety and emphasizes the importance of finding support and investing in oneself. Angela's story is a testament to resilience and the power of advocacy. Tune in to hear her compelling journey and be inspired by her unwavering commitment to making a difference.
