It was like one of those rugged edge knife sticking you in and turning. Yeah, so, you know, I knew she believed that, no matter how people talked about her mother, she would be in school fights because people were talking about her mother walking the streets being a junkie, you know.
Imagine hitting rock bottom and then rising to become a pillar of your community. That's exactly what Trina Frierson did. In this episode of the Positive Sobriety Podcast, hosts Nate Larkin and David Hampton sit down with Trina, the Co-Founder and CEO of Mending Hearts, to hear her compelling journey from addiction and incarceration to becoming a leader and advocate for those in need. Trina's story is a testament to the power of resilience, community support, and second chances.
She opens up about her struggles with addiction, the harsh realities of incarceration, and how she found her path to sobriety with the help of other women in recovery. Through her non-profit organization, Mending Hearts, Trina has been able to give back to her community in a profound way. She discusses the challenges and triumphs of starting a non-profit, the importance of community support, and the transformative power of forgiveness.
Whether you're on your own recovery journey or simply looking for an inspiring story, this episode offers a heartfelt and honest look at what it means to rebuild your life and help others do the same.
