Dawn McClure: From Wild Nights in LA to a Life of Sobriety and Advocacy

I did that not proud, but that was me, and when I face it I take back a little dignity, not looking for excuses.
Ever wondered what it takes to turn a life of chaos into one of purpose? Dawn McClure's story might just give you the inspiration you need. In this episode of The Bubble Hour, host Jean McCarthy chats with Dawn about her journey from the glitz and turmoil of late 70s LA to a fulfilling life in recovery. Dawn left Canada in 1979, diving headfirst into a world filled with sex, drugs, and endless parties.
It wasn't long before the glamorous facade wore thin, and she found herself battling addiction and regret. Returning to Canada didn't immediately solve her problems; instead, she faced one desperate situation after another. But Dawn's story is far from a tale of defeat. She managed to reclaim her life from the clutches of addiction and toxic relationships, ultimately becoming a lawyer who helps other women in similar predicaments.
Her transformation is a testament to the power of self-reflection, advocacy, and community support. Dawn opens up about the role of shame and guilt in her journey and how finding a supportive network, like She Recovers, was crucial to her healing. If you're curious about how someone can rise from rock bottom to become a beacon of hope for others, this episode is a must-listen.
