I saw people who had battled addiction and had got into recovery and stayed there and so my mentality changed that day and when I saw it was possible I fucking wanted it because, you know, I want my daughter back for that was the drive then and obviously I still want that today.

Her parents met in rehab, and her early years were marred by her mother's severe mental illness, which led to Korenne and her sister being taken away. At just nine years old, Korenne started drinking. By 15, after her mother's tragic death, she turned to drugs. Fast forward to today, and Korenne is celebrating a full year of sobriety.
