Carrie Masters: Keep Moving Forward

This week on Recovery On-Air, we sit down with Carrie Masters, CEO of St. Joseph the Worker, whose life story is a powerful testament to resilience and forward momentum. Raised in a home impacted by addiction and hardship, Carrie faced overwhelming challenges early in life including being left to care for herself and her siblings as a teenager and becoming a single mother at 20. Rather than becoming another statistic, Carrie built an extraordinary career, rising from receptionist to Chief Operating Officer at LGE Design Build before stepping into nonprofit leadership. Today, she leads St. Joseph the Worker in empowering unhoused and low-income individuals to find stability through employment. Carrie shares how perseverance, service, and purpose shaped her journey and why simply “keeping moving forward” can change everything.
