Staying in Recovery Through Adversity!

from Healing Out Loud Hosted by Isha Reed

In this deeply personal episode of Healing Out Loud, I share the real stories behind my recovery—approaching 13 years clean from PCP, four years without marijuana, and nearly three years without alcohol. I talk honestly about how my grandsons influenced my decisions to stop, how God sustained me when adversity came, and why recovery means more than simply giving up a substance. Recovery means facing your pain, telling yourself the truth, and choosing not to return to the things that once kept you bound. My grandson even makes a brief, unplanned appearance during the episode—a beautiful reminder of one of the reasons I chose recovery. Guided by 2 Corinthians 5:17, this episode is about becoming a new creation, staying committed when life gets difficult, and trusting that your past does not get the final word.
