Imagine being just 11 years old and already navigating the harsh realities of life on the streets. This episode of 'Clean or Sober' brings you a gripping tale of a young girl who found herself ensnared in a cycle of addiction and exploitation, following in her mother's troubled footsteps.

This episode dives deep into her journey, highlighting the importance of individualized approaches to sobriety and the power of purpose in recovery. If you're looking for a story that embodies resilience and the transformative power of hope, this one's for you.
