Episode 104 | Tragedy to Triumph | Built By The Red Stick Addiction Recovery Podcast

In this episode of the Addiction Recovery Podcast, hosts Ronnie LeDuff and Michael Oakley welcome LaShona Mosby, founder of Families with a Broken Heart Due to Senseless Violence, for one of the most emotional conversations we've had on the show.After losing her son, Corinthian, to gun violence in 2014—a tragedy that also left her two other sons wounded—LaShona made the courageous decision to turn unimaginable pain into a mission of hope. Instead of allowing tragedy to define her family, she chose to become an advocate for healing, supporting families affected by violence, addiction, trauma, and mental health challenges.Through her organization and community initiatives like "Tragedy to Triumph," LaShona has created a space where survivors can share their stories, encourage one another, and remind families that they are never alone. Her message is simple but powerful: your greatest pain does not have to be the end of your story—it can become the beginning of someone else's hope.Ronnie, Michael, and LaShona discuss grief, forgiveness, faith, and the connection between trauma and addiction. They explore how communities can come together to break cycles of violence, support mental wellness, and create lasting change through compassion and service.This episode is a powerful reminder that even after life's darkest moments, healing is possible—and purpose can be found in places we never expected.🎧 Tune in to Episode 104 to hear LaShona Mosby's incredible story of resilience, faith, and turning tragedy into triumph.Support the showhttps://linktr.ee/builtbytheredstick
