Christina's Path: From Self-Doubt to Community Strength

I think having the experience I've had in the church, where there's like church splits and like all of these, is like splits over, like different beliefs over like what's right and what's not. It is not, it's they remove the alcohol and then it's being confronted with all of that.
Ever felt the weight of trying to be perfect? Christina knows that struggle all too well. In this heartfelt episode of 'Recovery Captured', host Shannon Louise sits down with Christina to unravel her story of addiction, self-betrayal, and the long road to healing. Growing up in a challenging environment, Christina faced immense pressure to meet impossible standards, leading her down a path of self-destructive behaviors. But her story doesn’t end there.
Christina shares how she learned to take action against triggers—like throwing the salmon out when in doubt—and invest in her own recovery. Through building a community of supportive relationships and embracing self-love, she found the strength to heal. Christina also opens up about the impact of trauma on addiction and the unique challenges she faced while healing within a religious community.
Her journey offers a beacon of hope for anyone grappling with similar issues, emphasizing the transformative power of community support and intentional healing. Tune in for an inspiring conversation that highlights the importance of investing in oneself and fostering healthy connections.
