Brandon and Kristy's Journey: From Prison to Purpose

So I want to give you major kudos on that, because it was hard. Sometimes I had one more person with me, but most of the time I was by myself.
What happens when two lives, both marked by addiction and prison, cross paths on the road to recovery? In this episode of 'Survivors of Addiction', hosts Brandon Orr and Kristy Laschober open up about their harrowing yet hopeful journeys. Brandon and Kristy, though their stories are different, found themselves in similar dark places before discovering the light of recovery.
They candidly discuss how trauma and mental health played a role in their addictions and how they managed to turn their lives around. Their experiences highlight the importance of finding a support system and community that understands the struggles of addiction. They also share how self-reflection and acceptance became cornerstones in their recovery process. Religion and spirituality are also touched upon as vital elements in their healing journeys.
This episode is not just about recounting past hardships; it’s a beacon of hope for anyone feeling isolated in their struggles. Brandon and Kristy remind us that no matter how tough the journey gets, there are people willing to support you, and there is always hope for a better future. If you're battling addiction or know someone who is, this episode offers a compassionate, honest look at the road to recovery.
