From Addiction to Advocacy: Suzula Bidon's Transformative Journey

I lived my whole life thinking: the less responsibility and the less discipline I had, the more free I was, and that is absolutely wrong.
Suzula Bidon’s life story is anything but ordinary. Growing up in the woods of Wisconsin with hippie parents, Suzula's childhood was filled with counterculture influences. However, the isolation and depression she experienced led her down a dark path of addiction, culminating in federal prison and a serious criminal record. In this episode of The SHAIR Recovery Podcast, host Omar Pinto sits down with Suzula to discuss her remarkable transformation from a drug-addicted felon to a practicing attorney and recovery advocate.
Today, Suzula is not just a lawyer; she's also a Minnesota Certified Peer Recovery Specialist and the creator of Recovery Yoga Meetings®, which she has been teaching since 2012. These meetings help individuals integrate recovery into their daily lives through yoga, fostering both physical and emotional healing. Suzula’s journey is a testament to the power of resilience and the possibility of redemption. She shares candidly about the importance of discipline, spirituality, and connection in her recovery process.
Listeners will find inspiration in her story and practical advice for their own recovery journeys. Whether you’re struggling with addiction or supporting someone who is, Suzula’s experiences offer valuable insights and hope.
