From Darkness to Light: Stephanie Crawford's Path to Sobriety
Without god's help, like, I'm incapable of being a good mother, no matter how much I want to be.
Stephanie Crawford’s life reads like a rollercoaster of hardships and triumphs. Growing up in St. Louis, Missouri, she faced terrifying childhood traumas that set a rocky stage for her future. Things took a darker turn as she found herself trapped in an abusive relationship, barely escaping with her life. With sheer determination, she boarded a Megabus to Dallas, Texas, driven by the hope of reuniting with her young daughter, Kaydence. But Dallas wasn't a smooth ride either.
Stephanie grappled with homelessness and shuffled in and out of psychiatric wards. However, it was at the Dallas 24 Hour Club, a transitional living facility for homeless alcoholics and addicts, where she found some of the most peaceful days of her life. This place became her sanctuary, providing the support and community she desperately needed. Today, Stephanie is not just surviving; she’s thriving. She’s become a pillar in the recovery community, working in treatment and even hosting her own podcast.
More importantly, she’s now a loving and caring mom to her children, Kaydence and Wesley. Her story is a powerful reminder that no matter how deep the darkness, there is always a way to find the light. If you're looking for inspiration and proof that perseverance can lead to profound change, Stephanie's journey is one you won’t want to miss.
