Todd's Journey: From Childhood Trauma to Transformational Recovery

I feel like we find a new normal in this lifestyle that we have.
Ever wondered how someone can rise from the depths of trauma and addiction to find a new life? Meet Todd, whose story is nothing short of remarkable. On this episode of 'The One Day At A Time Recovery Podcast', host Arlina Allen sits down with Todd, a long-time friend, to explore his incredible journey. Growing up with a strict, authoritarian father, Todd's childhood was far from easy.
Sports provided some escape, but it was drugs and alcohol that he turned to for relief, leading him down a dark path of addiction and multiple suicide attempts. Yet, Todd's story doesn't end in despair. He shares how he found his way to recovery, emphasizing the crucial role of community and connection. Todd discovered that reaching out to others in times of fear and pain can be a lifeline.
He also learned the value of service, not just for others but for building his own self-esteem. His transformation is a powerful reminder that recovery isn't a one-size-fits-all journey; it's deeply personal and unique to each individual. Through his candid sharing, Todd offers hope and inspiration to anyone grappling with similar struggles. Tune in to hear how he navigated his way to healing and what he's learned along the way.
