My experience of all of the drugs, all of the histories that I had could help another human being. And but you know, I kept doing it to be of service.
Picture a childhood marked by heartbreak and instability. Wendy Adamson's life took a tragic turn when her mother died by suicide when she was just seven years old. This loss set off a chain of events that led Wendy to run away and live among homeless hippies in Topanga Canyon. Her father eventually made her a ward of the court, and she spent her formative years shuffling between juvenile detention and foster homes.
In her late thirties, a horrific shooting became the catalyst for a profound spiritual awakening. From that moment, Wendy committed herself to breaking the cycle of destruction that had plagued her family and community. In this episode of 'The Drunkalogues', Wendy sits down with host Nick Morton to share her incredible journey. She delves into the origins of her son’s inspiring non-profit, HavASole, which provides sneakers to kids in need. Wendy's story is a powerful testament to resilience and transformation.
Through candid anecdotes and heartfelt reflections, she reveals how she turned her tumultuous past into a mission to uplift others. If you're looking for a story that blends raw honesty with hope, this episode is a must-listen.
