But for those that don't have anything, maybe, like I did, it's going to start with you reaching out, you telling your secrets, because your secrets are keeping you sick, making sure that you're putting the next best steps in your path.
Ever wondered how someone can transform their life from the depths of addiction to becoming a beacon of hope? In this episode of 'Unpause Your Life', Dr. Cali Estes and Master Coach Jenny Fontana sit down with Chanda Lynn, a poet, activist, and mother who has turned her life around in an extraordinary way. Chanda’s journey through a six-year battle with addiction, which included almost every drug imaginable, is both harrowing and inspiring.
She opens up about her struggles, including going through pregnancy while addicted and spending her first year as a mother strung out. However, a miraculous encounter with faith set her on a path to recovery. Now, three years sober, Chanda is a full-time mother of two, using her voice to advocate for others in similar situations. Throughout the episode, Chanda shares the significance of faith in her recovery journey and the power of sharing one’s story.
She talks about the importance of finding a supportive treatment center that genuinely cares about recovery and navigating the often harsh judgment from others. Chanda also touches on the jealousy factor in recovery, providing listeners with a raw and real perspective on these challenges. Listeners will find Chanda’s story not only inspiring but also incredibly relatable. Her message emphasizes unity and the collective effort needed in the recovery process.
Whether you're struggling with addiction, know someone who is, or are simply looking for a story of hope and resilience, this episode offers valuable insights and encouragement. Tune in to hear how Chanda Lynn turned her life around and is now making a positive impact through her poetry and activism.
