Y.E.L.L for the Ignored: A Mother's Fight for Change

Recovery is not just a state of mind, it's a way of life sourced from your heart.
Ever thought about the silent struggles that often go unnoticed? In this compelling episode of Recovery Internet Radio, hosts Rick Atwater and Rob Ryberg sit down with Carolyn, a mother who turned her grief into activism. After losing her daughter Dani to an overdose, Carolyn and her other daughter Shelly became relentless advocates for those society often overlooks—the depressed, addicted, self-injurers, and suicidal.
Dani's tragic death, ruled as 'natural causes' despite her struggles with overprescription and addiction, ignited a fire in Carolyn to fight for better support systems. This episode dives into the harsh realities of navigating a flawed healthcare system and the emotional toll it takes on families. Carolyn's story isn't just one of loss; it's a beacon of hope and a call to action. She shares how community support and advocacy have been crucial in her journey toward healing.
Through this heartfelt conversation, you'll feel the raw pain but also the unyielding determination to make a difference. Tune in to hear how one mother's love and resilience can inspire us all to Y.E.L.L for the ignored.
