30 years doing the right thing, hanging with the right people. I wanted them to know. I said, just so you know, I'm not kidding when I say it's constant vigilance. It's there all the time. It's waiting for you all the time.
Picture this: It's the 70s, and you're a young person grappling with addiction, surrounded by a world that barely understands or supports you. In this gripping episode of 'Courage to Hope', host Tony LaGreca sits down with Susie Lordy, who takes us through her raw and inspiring journey from addiction to a remarkable 30 years of sobriety. Susie opens up about the tough battles she faced in an era where help was scarce and stigma was high.

She has channeled her experiences into helping others, founding initiatives like the Healing Hands Project and promoting graffiti as a positive outlet for at-risk youth. Her efforts are not just about recovery; they're about creating hope and healing in communities scarred by addiction.
This episode is a testament to the relentless fight against substance abuse and the incredible resilience of those who face it head-on.
