A chat with Ruby

Ruby began addiction treatment at Broadway Lodge for alcoholism in summer 2019 having just turned 26 years old. In this episode, Ruby openly talks to Markkus about her school-age years in the lead up to discovering mind altering substances and a traumatic event that resulted in escalating alcohol and drug abuse. Markkus describes Ruby as a ‘go getter’, always picking herself up from failed relationships and job losses. In her mid-twenties, she realised that if she could get the professional help she needed to sort out her emotions and to stop the drinking and drug use, she would have a chance at living a happy and successful life. You will hear how Ruby’s life has changed since her stay at Broadway Lodge. Later in this episode, she shares her valuable tips and advice for anyone who is going to embark on their own journey into recovery and passes on her wisdom about what she has learned through her experience. We are so grateful to Ruby for making time to come in and courageously sharing her story of addiction and recovery. We are all wishing her the very best of luck with her university studies and ongoing recovery journey. All Miracle Mansion Podcast episodes are available to listen to and download on Spotify, Apple Podcasts and Google Podcasts.
