Breaking Free: Sarah's Journey from Addiction to Advocacy

Freedom is something most Americans take for granted. Yet, millions of people in our country are imprisoned by destructive lifestyles that rob them of their children, their happiness and their dignity.
Freedom is something many take for granted, but for countless individuals trapped in cycles of addiction, it's a distant dream. In this episode of 'AbbaDaddy House Girls Speak Out', hosts Annette Smith and Myrna Thatcher introduce us to Sarah, a woman who has faced the relentless grip of addiction and found her way to a brighter path.
Sarah's story is a raw and honest account of her journey through the revolving door of substance abuse, from painkillers to methamphetamine, and the impact it had on her life. She opens up about losing her family, job, health, and dignity, and how she reached a point where she was 'sick and tired of being sick and tired'. But Sarah's tale isn't just one of struggle; it's also one of resilience and transformation.
Now an assistant to the director of a women's transitional home, she shares how she broke free from the 'Devil's Den' and found purpose in helping others do the same. Annette and Myrna provide a compassionate space for Sarah to recount her experiences, offering listeners not just a story, but also practical advice on breaking free from addiction. They emphasize the importance of support networks and being honest with oneself.
This episode is a powerful reminder that recovery is a journey filled with ups and downs, but with determination and support, freedom is within reach.
