You can't do anything unless you know who you are.
Imagine growing up with a parent struggling with alcoholism and addiction. That was Ayanna Parrent's reality. In this episode of 'The One Day At A Time Recovery Podcast', hosted by Arlina Allen, Ayanna opens up about her challenging upbringing, marked by her mother's addiction and homelessness. Ayanna candidly shares the traumas she endured and how they led her down a path of her own struggles with alcohol. But her story doesn't end there.
Ayanna's journey into recovery is nothing short of inspiring.

Currently working on a book proposal, Ayanna aims to explore these themes further and provide even more support to those on their own recovery journeys. Tune in to hear Ayanna's full story and gain insights into overcoming addiction and trauma.
