It takes a lot to spook Regina. She had been back in Atlanta for months and she had started out staying at her mother's and would go to Denny's every day and just hang out and smoke cigarettes and read and write.
Imagine a life filled with highs and lows, where addiction and recovery are constant companions. In Chapter 2, Episode 6 of 'Hammered: A Story of an Insatiable Spirit', Jill Haynie, a stone artist and master storyteller, takes listeners on a raw journey through her tumultuous experiences. This episode isn't just about the darkness of addiction; it's a testament to resilience and the power of self-reflection.
Jill's candid recounting of her past, including being held against her will and making questionable decisions while under the influence, offers a gripping narrative that is both heartbreaking and inspiring. She also touches on the unique challenges she faced as a woman in a male-dominated industry, shedding light on the additional hurdles she had to overcome. But it's not all grim.
Jill's story is also about the light at the end of the tunnel—the friendships that pulled her through, the support systems that lifted her up, and the moments of clarity that led to her recovery. Her reflections remind us that no matter how deep the abyss, there is always hope for a better tomorrow. If you're navigating your own path to sobriety or supporting someone who is, Jill's journey will resonate deeply.
Tune in to hear her powerful story of survival and triumph.
