Wendy Blanchard: A Story of Resilience and Integrated Recovery

I think that's really I mean when you look at what you've accomplished in Nine Years and all your different, as you said, certifications- and I mean that's a pretty impressive toolbox and you know for you to- you've actually taken the depths of your addiction and you've completely turned it around.
What does it take to turn a 40-year battle with addiction into a story of triumph and hope? Wendy Blanchard knows firsthand. In this episode of the 'Life Beyond Our Wildest Dreams' recovery podcast, Wendy opens up about her long journey from the depths of drug addiction to a life filled with purpose and wellness. With nine years of sobriety under her belt, Wendy has become a beacon of resilience, not just for herself but for everyone around her.
She discusses how mental health and self-care have been pivotal in her recovery, emphasizing that these aspects are just as crucial as overcoming substance use itself. Wendy's integrative approach to wellness combines traditional methods with holistic practices, making her story unique and inspiring. Her achievements are many—degrees, certifications, and a career as an international motivational speaker and author.
Yet, what she cherishes most is the love and respect of her children and grandchildren, who only know her as the strong, sober woman she is today. Wendy also touches on the importance of breaking down stigmas surrounding mental health and addiction, urging listeners to embrace a more compassionate view. Her upcoming book, 'Write Pray Recover', promises to offer even more insights into her journey and integrative recovery tools.
This episode is a must-listen for anyone touched by addiction or mental health struggles, offering not just inspiration but practical advice for leading a fulfilling life.
