When you come through something so horrific and on the other side you find this completely different person, you just resurface a different person.
Picture a young woman with everything going for her—star athlete, academic achiever, and from a supportive family—only to see it all unravel due to heroin addiction. That's Rebecca Ronning's story, and she shares it candidly on The SHAIR Recovery Podcast with host Omar Pinto. Rebecca's journey into heroin addiction began at 17, despite her promising start in life.
By the time she was 21, she had already celebrated one year of being clean, but the road to get there was anything but smooth. From dropping out of nursing school with just two semesters left to enduring multiple stints in rehab and sober houses, Rebecca's life spiraled out of control. She even faced a felony charge and overdosed four times. Her addiction strained her family, who struggled to understand how she could throw away so much potential.
Yet, Rebecca's story is one of resilience and transformation. She speaks openly about the role spirituality played in her recovery, the significance of service in maintaining sobriety, and the tough battle against arrogance and ego. Through the support of her recovery community and a newfound commitment to helping others, Rebecca has turned her life around. This episode serves as a powerful reminder that no matter how dark things may seem, miracles can happen.
