I motivated myself into a whole new kind of stratosphere. Wow, I did it, you know, and it motivates the next hours, and when you make it through those next hours, it's a bigger like: oh shit, I'm getting good.
How does one rise from the depths of domestic violence and alcoholism to find a life of peace and sobriety? Brooke Collins knows this journey all too well. In this episode of 'The One Day At A Time Recovery Podcast', host Arlina Allen sits down with Brooke, who has been sober for nearly a decade. Brooke opens up about her harrowing past, marked by addiction and an abusive relationship, all while raising a young child.
Her story is not just about survival but about the transformative power of community support and holistic recovery methods.

Her journey underscores the resilience required to overcome such immense challenges and offers hope to anyone facing similar struggles.
