That shrinking things down actually makes the big possible...and that's the stuff that keeps me in recovery, the stuff that I used to dismiss as being frivolous.
Ever wondered how someone can go from the depths of addiction to finding peace on the open sea? Meet Kate, whose story on 'Let's Recover Together' is a testament to resilience and the power of second chances. Growing up in a tumultuous home, Kate found refuge in her studies, excelling academically. However, a surgery introduced her to prescription painkillers, and soon she found herself dependent on them.
The situation took a turn for the worse when she discovered her husband's infidelity, leading her to seek solace in alcohol. Kate's life spiraled out of control, and she lost everything. But just when it seemed like all hope was lost, fate stepped in. Pregnant and determined to change, Kate managed to shake off her addiction to painkillers. Yet, the battle wasn't over; alcohol had taken its place.
With the support of loved ones and a step program, Kate embarked on a journey of recovery. Today, she lives on a sailboat off the coast of Canada, embracing the serenity of the ocean and the joy of living in the present. Kate's story is a powerful reminder that no matter how dark things may seem, there's always a chance for a fresh start. Tune in to hear her inspiring journey and discover how she found hope and healing.
