Danielle's Path from Addiction to Sobriety: A Tale of Courage

I was feeling severely depressed when I started doing that and felt really hopeless.
What do smuggling cocaine, nitrous oxide addiction, and a journey to sobriety have in common? They all form parts of Danielle's incredible story. In this episode of 'Journeys Unplugged: Stories of Triumph in Sobriety', Danielle, who has been sober since January 22, 2020, opens up about her tumultuous past and her inspiring recovery. At just 27, she has lived through experiences that many of us can hardly imagine.
From the thrill and danger of smuggling drugs into foreign countries to the numbing haze of nitrous oxide addiction that left her temporarily paralyzed, Danielle's life was a whirlwind of chaos and addiction. But her story doesn't end there. A friend's intervention marked the turning point, leading her to a sober living environment and eventually to Alcoholics Anonymous (AA). Danielle shares candidly about her early days in AA, the challenges of step work, and the invaluable support of sponsorship.
She also touches on the delicate topic of dating while sober and the importance of taking life one day at a time. This episode is a raw, unfiltered look at the highs and lows of addiction and the incredible strength it takes to reclaim one's life. Whether you're on your own journey to sobriety or supporting someone who is, Danielle's story offers hope, understanding, and a reminder that recovery is possible.
