Radio DJ Jennifer: From Crack Addiction to a New Beginning

To me, and I know society can look at that as somebody who relapses is as a sign of weakness. Rather than being in this mindset, I don't want to go to a meeting today. Right, I use it in different aspects, like financial sobriety, or you know, I just try to use the program now and tackle different issues that I'm going on.
Jennifer, a rock 'n' roll radio DJ from Florida, had it all—until her partying lifestyle spiraled into addiction. In this gripping episode of 'Escaping Rock Bottom', Brandon Lee sits down with Jennifer as she recounts her tumultuous journey through addiction, relapse, and recovery. Jennifer’s story isn’t just about hitting rock bottom; it’s about the raw reality of addiction and the road to redemption.
She opens up about how untreated trauma led her down this path and how she lost nearly everything, including herself, to addiction. After five years of sobriety, Jennifer relapsed, prioritizing a toxic relationship over her own well-being. Found behind a dumpster with a crack pipe just 90 days ago, she’s now back in rehab and making strides toward recovery. Jennifer shares the importance of facing trauma head-on and the critical role of having a sponsor in maintaining sobriety.
She also touches on the societal stigma surrounding relapse and how it complicates the recovery process. With candid honesty, she discusses how she applies sobriety principles to various aspects of her life, including financial stability. Tune in for a raw and inspiring conversation that sheds light on the complex battle against addiction and the hope that lies in recovery.
