Toy and Connie: Finding Hope and New Beginnings at Powell Recovery Center

But you just got to be willing to come to power and get your life back and do the step work. Lives are being transformed in Southeast Baltimore through the power recovery center.
Imagine hitting rock bottom and then finding a place that offers you a second chance. That’s exactly what happened to Toy and Connie, two brave individuals who share their deeply personal stories of recovery in this episode. Powell Recovery Center, a non-profit in Southeast Baltimore, played a pivotal role in their journeys from addiction to sobriety. Toy's struggle began after she tore her ACL, leading her down a dark path of drug abuse.
Her life spiraled out of control until she found solace at Powell Recovery Center. The center provided her not just with a roof over her head, but also with a job and the unwavering support of Ms. Wanda, a facilitator who Toy credits with giving her invaluable guidance. Connie’s story is equally compelling. Unable to attend college out of state due to her mother's concerns, she turned to drugs.
Powell Recovery Center offered her the chance to tap into her potential and start anew. Through step work and the support system at the center, Connie was able to embark on a journey towards becoming a better version of herself. Both Toy and Connie's stories highlight the transformative power of community and support in overcoming addiction. They show that no matter how bleak things may seem, it's never too late to turn your life around.
Their experiences serve as a beacon of hope for anyone struggling with addiction, proving that with the right support system, recovery is possible. If you or someone you know is battling addiction, this episode is a must-listen. Tune in to hear Toy and Connie’s inspiring stories and discover how Powell Recovery Center can offer hope and a fresh start.
