Kali's Story: Finding Light After Tragedy and Addiction

Part of your recovery now is what we could maybe call marijuana maintenance, but you cautioned me before the show that you don't want to convey the message of like, yeah, smoke weed and you'll probably be fine, right? You want to convey a little bit more around this.
What happens when the love of your life succumbs to a fatal overdose? For Kali, it meant a heart-wrenching descent back into the grip of addiction. In this moving episode of 'Chasing Heroine: Addiction Recovery Podcast', Jeannine Coulter Lindgren sits down with Kali to unpack her journey through unimaginable loss, relapse, and eventual recovery. After her boyfriend's death in January 2016, Kali spiraled back into using fentanyl and heroin. But her story doesn't end there.
She opens up about her intense detox process and how she found a lifeline in marijuana maintenance and refuge recovery. Kali's candid discussion about the Four Noble Truths, a cornerstone of refuge recovery, provides a fresh perspective on healing past traumas and finding a path to sobriety. This episode is a raw and honest look at the resilience of the human spirit, offering hope and insights for anyone touched by addiction.
