Jeannine's Journey: From Addiction to Empowerment and Success

For me it was step, and I understand that not everybody does that, but for me, step gives you back a framework for living, and that was how I found the ability to take care of things.
Jeannine Coulter Lindgren's story is a powerful testament to resilience and the human spirit. Despite an idyllic upbringing, Jeannine found herself entangled in drug and alcohol addiction for about 15 years. Her struggles led her down a dark path, resulting in homelessness, multiple arrests, and losing everything she held dear. But Jeannine didn't let her circumstances define her future.
After nearly seven years of sobriety, she's now the proud owner of a fitness studio, hosts the Chasing Heroine podcast, and has built a successful entrepreneurial career. In this episode of 'Henry's Uncle', Jeannine opens up about her tumultuous journey and the pivotal role the step program played in her recovery. She shares how this framework not only helped her overcome addiction but also empowered her to rebuild her life from the ground up.
Jeannine's candid account is both heart-wrenching and uplifting, offering a beacon of hope for anyone facing similar battles. Whether you're in recovery, supporting a loved one, or simply seeking inspiration, Jeannine's story is a compelling reminder that it's never too late to turn your life around.
