If I can make it through that, I can make it through anything.
What do you get when a pandemic, a barber, and a journey to sobriety collide? An inspiring story that’s too good to miss. In this episode of 'Way To Feel', Bran FS sits down with Samantha Quintero, a vibrant barber from Sacramento, California, who opens up about her battle with addiction and her path to staying sober during one of the most challenging times in recent history.
Originally, Bran didn't plan on having a guest for the season opener, but Samantha's story was just too compelling to hold back. Samantha takes us through her life from getting out of rehab during the 2020 pandemic to staying clean and motivated over a year later. Her journey isn't just about overcoming addiction; it's about embracing the gifts that come with clean living.
Growing up as the youngest of six children, Samantha faced immense stress and turned to sports to excel, which later translated into excessive drinking. With candid honesty, she shares how the support from her family and therapist played a crucial role in her recovery. The closure of bars and restaurants during the pandemic surprisingly became a source of strength for her, helping her stay committed to her sobriety.
Samantha’s story is a testament to resilience and the power of asking for help. It’s an episode filled with raw emotions, personal triumphs, and the unwavering spirit of someone living loud and proud in their sobriety. Whether you’re on your own journey to sobriety or supporting someone who is, Samantha’s experiences offer valuable insights and inspiration.
