I share a lot of that in the book and you know my main focus is to help the justice system by working individually with people to remind themselves of the truth of what they are, that they're not that branding, they're not the label on the sentence, and that's what most struggle with is: is that branding?
Nadia Davis has faced more than her fair share of challenges. As a young Latina and Native American lawyer, she was thrust into the public eye, not just for her career but also for her personal battles. In this episode of 'New Books in Drugs, Addiction and Recovery', Davis shares her story of overcoming addiction, mental health struggles, and public shaming, all detailed in her memoir, *Home Is Within You*.
Host Marshall Poe guides the conversation, diving into Davis' journey through trauma and her path to healing. She opens up about the darkness she endured, including an abusive relationship that was highly publicized. Yet, Davis doesn't just recount her hardships; she offers insights into her transformational healing process. Through spiritual advocacy, healthy co-parenting, and a commitment to ending generational trauma, she found a way to reclaim her life.
Davis also discusses the role of kundalini yoga and meditation in helping her stay present and mindful. She emphasizes the importance of truth and identity beyond societal labels, advocating for a justice system that recognizes the humanity in everyone. This episode is a raw and inspiring look at one woman's journey to wholeness, offering hope and practical advice for anyone facing similar struggles.
