You know, as far as making amends for my family, I just am a living amends. I remember my dad saying, you know what, Janie, the best apology is changed behavior. And I have definitely lived up to that. I've made a commitment to make a living amends and to live the best life that I could live.
Jane L’s story is a powerful reminder that recovery can begin in the most unlikely places. Sober Cast brings you her incredible journey, starting from a prison cell in Tallahassee, Florida, to becoming a teaching professor at Florida State University. Jane, also known as Jane D, shares her raw and honest experience of getting sober while incarcerated and how she transformed her life over 25 years of sobriety.
Speaking at the Flint River Roundup in March 2022, Jane opens up about the challenges she faced and the resilience she found within herself. Her narrative is filled with moments of despair, but also with profound hope and the unwavering belief that change is possible. This episode is not just about overcoming addiction; it's about finding purpose and meaning in life after hitting rock bottom.
