Valerie Silveira: Rising from the Shadows of Addiction and Loss

Today is the Day to decide to stand up and fight, not Tomorrow.
Imagine facing the heartbreak of losing a child repeatedly to addiction. That's the reality Valerie Silveira lived through, and in this episode of Beyond Hope, she opens up about her incredible journey. Hosted by Shar Jones, Valerie shares the pain and darkness she endured after her daughter Jordan was shot and subsequently spiraled into heroin addiction. But Valerie's story isn't just about suffering; it's about finding strength and hope when everything seems lost.
Valerie, an award-winning author and creator of the Nine Actions to Battle Your Beast program, discusses how she clawed her way out of despair. She talks about building a 'circle of strength'—a support network of people who lift you up when you're down. She also emphasizes the importance of shifting your focus to find joy and purpose, even in the midst of turmoil.
Spirituality and inspiration played key roles in her recovery, offering her a lifeline when she needed it most. Throughout the episode, Valerie speaks candidly about self-care and self-love, urging listeners to give themselves permission to live again after experiencing profound loss. Her books, including 'Still Standing After All the Tears', and her online resources provide a roadmap for others navigating similar struggles. Valerie's story is a powerful testament to human resilience.
Through her Nine Actions program and various resources, she continues to inspire and guide others on their paths to healing and personal growth. Tune in to hear how she turned her darkest moments into a beacon of hope for many.
