I was doing everything that drug addicts do. There was nothing that I wouldn't do to get what I thought I needed and I would replace it with various things.
Ever wondered how someone can turn their life around after hitting rock bottom? Shay's story on the Hope Ahead podcast is a testament to the resilience of the human spirit. Shay opens up about her journey, starting from what seemed like a typical childhood to the dark depths of addiction.
She candidly discusses the progression of her drug use, the toll it took on her and her family, and the pivotal moment when she knew she had to make a change. Drug court and detox were not just hurdles but lifelines that helped Shay see a new path. Today, she's not only sober but also works in substance abuse recovery while pursuing a degree in psychology.
Shay emphasizes the importance of finding purpose and how it can be a beacon of hope in the darkest times. Her story is more than just a personal account; it's an inspiration for anyone struggling with addiction or supporting someone who is. Tune in to hear Shay's incredible transformation and find out how she turned her struggles into a mission to help others.
