Ananda's Resilience: From Childhood Trauma to Recovery

Despite being affected by alcoholism and drug addiction, they loved me in every way that they could, and they made it clear.
Imagine growing up in a home where drugs were as common as breakfast cereal. That was Ananda's reality. Raised by parents who were entrenched in drug and alcohol addiction, Ananda's early years were marked by chaos and neglect. By the age of five, she was already trafficking drugs for her parents. Her story takes a dark turn when her parents divorced, and her mother's new partner began to sexually abuse her while her mother was too high to intervene.
Despite this harrowing upbringing, Ananda found a path to recovery through Al-Anon and therapy. She learned to rebuild relationships and focus on her passions, showing remarkable resilience and strength. This episode of Steppin' Out Radio dives deep into Ananda's journey, highlighting the profound impact of addiction on families and the incredible power of community support in the healing process. It's a story that resonates with anyone who has faced similar struggles or knows someone who has.
