Addiction Led Her to the Wrong Door — Or the Right One? | Episode 46
from Get a Grip Podcast · host Louis Essig and Aaron Garnes
Jen Garnes’ life is the kind of story that feels like a movie—but every moment is real. Born into a home shaped by addiction, Jen grew up in the shadows of alcoholism and drug abuse. Her earliest memories are laced with instability, emotional pain, and survival.

That trauma sent her spiraling into her own battle with substances, unknowingly following the same dark path. What happened next is almost too wild to believe. Jen's addiction led her to the brink, where desperation took over. In a moment that could’ve cost her everything, she broke into a house—only to find out later it belonged to the local sheriff. It was rock bottom, a wake-up call, and the start of a new chapter all rolled into one.This episode dives deep into Jen's unbelievable journey—from surviving a childhood marked by dysfunction and loss, to navigating the chaos of addiction, to finding the courage to heal and change.
