I just truly feel that there's a serious epidemic going on here, and the more we bring it to light that maybe we can change the dialogue and potentially save somebody's life, or just offer that support that they may need in understanding.
Julia Warren's story is one of resilience, heartbreak, and ultimately, hope. In this episode of The Therapeutic Poet, host Jacky Power sits down with Julia to explore her path from the depths of addiction to the challenging process of recovery. Julia, a trauma-informed yoga teacher and writer, opens up about her personal struggles and the devastating loss of her husband, Doug, who overdosed in September 2021 after a relapse.
As a mother and recovering addict herself, Julia's journey is filled with moments of intense loneliness and isolation, but also profound connections and support from fellow women in recovery. The conversation touches on the fear that often prevents people from reaching out for help and how stepping through that fear can be life-saving. Julia's insights into grief reveal that sometimes, it's not about having the right words but simply being present for someone who is suffering.
Her story is both heart-wrenching and relatable, shedding light on the silent battles many face. By sharing her experiences, Julia hopes to encourage others to open up and find their own paths to healing. Tune in to hear this powerful conversation that aims to break down the stigma surrounding addiction and overdose, offering a beacon of hope for those navigating similar struggles.
