My children couldn't watch me kill myself anymore, because that's what I was doing, and one by one they all left. And yeah, losing my children was what brought me into recovery really, because there was no point in me living without them.
Ever wondered how someone can rise from the depths of addiction to rebuild a life filled with hope and success? In this episode of 'Let's Recover Together', the spotlight is on Jo, usually the one asking the questions, but this time, she shares her own gripping story. With a soundtrack featuring Pink, Queen, and Rag 'n' Bone Man, Jo takes us through her turbulent past—from a dysfunctional childhood and time in a children's home to battling alcohol and cocaine addiction.
Her journey saw her lose her business and her relationship with her children, but that's not where her story ends. Jo's tale is one of resilience and recovery, emphasizing the power of community and the role music played in her healing process. She talks about the importance of support systems, ego deflation, and building self-esteem in her path to sobriety.
Whether you're facing your own struggles with addiction or supporting someone who is, Jo's story serves as a powerful reminder that recovery is possible, one day at a time. Tune in for an episode filled with raw honesty, inspiring insights, and a killer playlist that underscores the highs and lows of her journey.
