Angelise Tomasino: Rising Above Opioid Addiction and Inner-City Violence

I believe that there are no coincidences in life... Honestly, this relapse was probably one of the best things that could have ever happened to me, because it made me face that I was sick and tired of my own shit.
Imagine battling a crippling opioid addiction while trying to make a difference in a community plagued by violence. That’s the story of Angelise Tomasino, and it’s nothing short of remarkable. In this episode of 'Nowhere To Go But Up', host Sean Dustin sits down with Angelise to uncover her journey from the depths of addiction to becoming a beacon of hope in Chicago's inner city.
Once hooked on up to 60 pills a day, Angelise’s life spiraled out of control until she hit rock bottom. Her road to recovery was anything but smooth, marked by multiple relapses and moments of despair. But it was these very setbacks that fueled her determination to change. Now, she channels her experiences into activism, working tirelessly to combat senseless violence through her Facebook page, Comefindme.
Angelise believes in the power of community and the importance of helping others to heal oneself. Her story is a testament to resilience, self-acceptance, and the profound impact one person can have on their surroundings. Tune in to hear Angelise’s candid reflections and learn how she turned her life around while inspiring others to do the same.
