Honestly, I think that people don't understand them. Yeah, but coming into the program and really seeing the kinds of people that work the-steps and the way that you can work them and do them right, but also be true to yourself, it's a god of your own understanding.
Imagine growing up with Tourette's Syndrome and finding solace in substances that only pull you deeper into addiction. That's Clara's story. As a young girl, she grappled with insecurity and turned to weed, alcohol, and eventually cocaine and heroin to escape her reality. Her journey is a raw and honest account of how addiction can take hold and the immense effort it takes to break free.
At just 20, Clara realized her life was spiraling out of control when she cheated on her boyfriend and stole from her parents. These actions were a wake-up call, pushing her to seek help and commit to the 12 Steps of Recovery.

She shares how being present and accountable has transformed her life, allowing her to find excitement in the everyday. Clara's story is a powerful reminder that no matter how deep you are in your addiction, there is always a way out. Her candidness and resilience offer hope to anyone facing similar battles, making this episode a must-listen for those seeking inspiration on their own path to recovery.
