Make your mess your message, they said. Amen to that! But first she had to clean up the mess.
Ever wondered how someone can go from being a chain smoker to a champion of quitting? In this episode of 'Recovery Nuggets', host David Clemen chats with Joanna NicciTina Free, who shares her incredible journey of breaking free from nicotine addiction. Joanna, once known as Joanna Cummings, was a smoker who lit up before getting out of bed and kept at it until lights out. She even doubted her own ability to quit.
Fast forward to today, and she's the author of 'Kick Butts Take Names' and 'Buttkickers: Twenty Ways to Leave Tobacco', books praised for their innovative approach to smoking cessation. Joanna opens up about the challenges she faced, including stripping away all her comforts except for recovery meetings. She talks about the importance of maintaining a positive mindset and how changing the language around addiction helped her stay focused.
Meditation also played a big role in her recovery, offering her new ways to stay centered and committed. This episode is not just for those struggling with nicotine but for anyone dealing with addiction. Joanna’s story is a testament to the power of resilience and the importance of trying new things in recovery. Whether you're looking for inspiration or practical tips, this conversation offers both in spades.
So, if you're curious about how to kick nicotine or any other addiction, tune in. Joanna’s journey might just be the spark you need to start your own path to freedom.
