Finding Balance: Heidi Ramsey’s Journey Through Addiction and Recovery
And if you think for one minute that things can't get better, or they're not going to get better or they won't get better, just wait another five minutes and it probably will.
Heidi Ramsey returns to 'Recovery Is Possible' for a heart-to-heart with Michael Van Meter about the highs and lows of her journey towards life balance and recovery. Having previously shared her story in Episode 20, Heidi now brings fresh insights gained from her recent marriage and a renewed outlook on life. This episode dives deep into the struggles of maintaining a healthy work-life balance, especially for those in demanding professions like law enforcement.
Heidi opens up about pushing herself to the brink of injury and the dangers of process addictions—those compulsive behaviors that can be just as damaging as substance abuse. She candidly discusses the importance of focusing on oneself and the value of doing things purely for enjoyment, rather than obligation. Throughout the conversation, Heidi's resilience shines through, offering a beacon of hope to anyone grappling with addiction.
Her message is clear: with time, effort, and support, achieving balance and recovery is possible. Whether you’re in the throes of addiction or supporting someone who is, Heidi’s story is a powerful reminder that it’s never too late to seek help and make positive changes.
