This episode of Clean and Sober Radio is a gripping tale of resilience and transformation. Hosts Gary Hendler and Mark Sigmund sit down with Jackie Febus, who shares her incredible journey from the streets of Camden, New Jersey, to celebrating five years of sobriety. Jackie’s story is nothing short of inspiring—she’s been in and out of correctional facilities over 40 times, battled multiple relapses, and faced homelessness head-on.
Yet, she stands as living proof that recovery is possible, even after 15 years of struggle. Jackie’s candid recounting of her experiences, from the lows of addiction to the highs of her current sober life, is both raw and uplifting. She discusses the challenges women face in addiction recovery and how stigma can make it harder for them to seek help.
With humour and honesty, Jackie offers hope to those still battling addiction, reminding us that change is always within reach. This episode isn’t just about Jackie’s past; it’s a celebration of her present and a beacon for others to follow. Tune in to hear how she overcame the odds and continues to inspire others on their path to recovery.
