My hope with these is to inspire hope in other people. And things like this still hit me to this day and I go: oh yeah, that's right, like. Life can be so much better and it doesn't have to involve getting well every day and it doesn't have to involve just moving from one crisis to another.
Jeannine Coulter Lindgren takes the mic solo in this episode of 'Chasing Heroine: Addiction Recovery Podcast' to share a heartfelt reflection on how recovery has transformed her life. She dives into two significant birthdays—one in 2010, marred by addiction, and another in 2021, filled with gratitude and joy. In 2010, Jeannine's birthday celebration at a James Taylor and Carole King concert was overshadowed by the dark cloud of cocaine comedowns.
Fast forward to 2021, her husband surprised her with a trip to the Harry Potter theme park, where she was overwhelmed with gratitude and a renewed zest for life. Jeannine emphasizes the power of sharing recovery stories to inspire hope in others. She also highlights the importance of staying grateful, which has been a cornerstone of her long-term sobriety.
Jeannine touches on how literature and media have played a role in her recovery journey, mentioning Cheryl Strayed's book 'Wild' as a source of inspiration during her early days of sobriety. Throughout the episode, Jeannine encourages listeners to support educational initiatives like Dr. Emery's college advocacy program and invites them to suggest topics for future solo casts and YouTube videos.
This episode is a raw and inspiring look at the highs and lows of addiction and the incredible transformation that sobriety can bring.
