As a child, I think that was probably the greatest key for me, because even when I was getting high... I still had that moral compass that my parents gave us, in spite of everything my father had been doing with outside affairs, and we still had that.
Meet M.L. Holly, a remarkable woman who transformed her life from the depths of a 16-year crack cocaine addiction to becoming an author, speaker, therapist, and crisis worker. In this episode of 'Slaying Your Giants', host King David Haynes dives into Holly's incredible journey, shedding light on the complex factors that contribute to addiction and the powerful role of faith in recovery.

She emphasizes the importance of having a moral compass and how her faith in Jesus Christ became the cornerstone of her recovery. Listeners will find Holly's insights both profound and practical.
She talks about the significance of storytelling in the healing process, not just for the individual but for their families as well.
