Ep51 Kourtney Thompson

Kourtney Thompson - Episode 51At just nine years old Kourtney Thompson had her first taste of alcohol. By the time she was fourteen she was drinking from the moment woke up, until she couldn’t even stand up at night. After witnessing her mother’s abusive relationship, she found herself in one when she tried to make her escape from a neglectful home at just eighteen. She says that she was drinking to “speed up the process” because she didn’t want to be alive anymore, but everything turned around when she found her bonus family. She now celebrates nine months sober and is prepared to continue her sobriety journey with the help of the people she surrounds herself with today.
