Joani Gammill's journey is a testament to the power of transformation. Once caught in the grip of opioid addiction, Joani now dedicates her life to helping others find their way out. In this episode of Steppin' Out Radio, Joani shares her remarkable story, from her own intervention led by Dr. Phil McGraw on a Prime Time Special to becoming a full-time interventionist at Recovery Centers of America.
With over a decade of experience and hundreds of interventions under her belt, Joani offers a unique perspective on the struggles and triumphs of battling substance use disorders. She discusses the societal impact of opioids, the nuances between private and complimentary intervention services, and the vital role community plays in recovery. Joani’s candid reflections provide a blend of personal anecdotes and professional insights that are both enlightening and inspiring.
