Writing is so personal that you're afraid.
Robyn King's life reads like a rock ballad of highs and lows. In this episode of 'The Truth About Addiction', host Ron Isherwood sits down with Robyn, a musician whose early years were overshadowed by a severe heroin addiction. By the age of 18, Robyn's world revolved around feeding her habit, leading to numerous stints in detox and rehab facilities. Her journey to sobriety was anything but straightforward, marked by multiple relapses and the heartbreaking loss of her eldest daughter.
Despite these immense challenges, Robyn has managed to stay clean for the past six years and two weeks.

She candidly shares how writing music is deeply personal and sometimes daunting but also incredibly healing. By opening up about her past struggles and ongoing recovery, Robyn hopes to inspire others facing similar battles. Her story is a testament to the power of resilience, community support, and the transformative impact of creative expression. Tune in to hear Robyn's raw and inspiring journey, as she turns her painful past into a hopeful future through music.
