Stephanie and Tonette: Triumphs Over Addiction

Deciding to stay November The 9th was the best decision thus far I've made.
Stephanie and Tonette’s journeys through addiction and recovery offer a raw, honest look at the power of perseverance. Stephanie’s story begins with what seemed like harmless experimentation in high school, but it quickly spiraled into a daily struggle with drugs and alcohol. The moment her son was taken away by child protective services was a wake-up call that led her to seek help. After bouncing between various programs, she finally found the support she needed at Powell Recovery Center.
Stephanie highlights the importance of focusing on oneself and the invaluable role of community support in her path to sobriety. Tonette’s experience is equally compelling. She first tried cocaine in her thirties, thinking it would be a one-time thing. However, it wasn't long before she found herself isolated and losing everything she held dear. Her lowest point came when she couldn't even attend her father's funeral because of her addiction.
Powell Recovery Center became her lifeline, helping her to reconnect with her family and rebuild her life. Both women credit Powell Recovery Center for their transformations, emphasizing how crucial community support is in the recovery process. Their stories are vivid reminders of the resilience of the human spirit and the transformative potential of dedicated recovery programs. Tune in to hear Stephanie and Tonette's full accounts and find inspiration in their journeys.
