Kriya Lendzion Episode S01 EPS 294

In the latest episode of the Empowerography Podcast, my guest is Kriya Lendzion. The perfect storm of Kriya's adolescent years led to her rapidly progressing from early substance experimentation to full-blown alcoholism, disordered eating, self-harm, and self-destructive sexual behaviors by her late teen years. She entered rehab at 19, while in the middle of college, and naturally pivoted towards a career in the counseling and addiction fields. Over 30 years later, she has worked with thousands of kids from elementary age through young adulthood in various school settings, with a focus on preventing and intervening with youth on harmful paths. Kriya's life journey has continued to challenge and strengthen her, as she traversed and grew through unhealthy and abusive relationships, an inherited pattern of workaholism, and the parenting challenges of being a 100% single working mom raising a “twice exceptional” bi-racial son. All of which she continues to use to not only empower herself, but to also help others evolve into their greatest potential. In this episode we discuss counselling, addiction, being the teen whisperer, learning from our mistakes and personal journey.
