In this powerful episode, we meet Shari and Marguerite, two extraordinary women whose personal struggles with addiction nearly destroyed their lives. From picture-perfect facades to devastating lows, their stories reveal the hidden truths behind the masks they wore.
Shari battled drugs, alcohol, gambling, and multiple suicide attempts, losing herself in a cycle of addiction, while Marguerite spent decades hiding behind perfectionism, alcoholism, and devastating life decisions made under the influence. Both women faced deep family traumas, unprocessed grief, and intense shame.
Today, their lives are completely transformed. Shari, now sober, has rebuilt her relationship with her family, witnessing the healing of generational wounds, while Marguerite found freedom and purpose in helping countless others through recovery, embracing life with renewed passion and self-understanding.
Listeners will gain invaluable insights into overcoming shame, understanding the "why" behind addiction, and discovering hope in even the darkest situations. Tune in for an honest conversation that breaks stigma and inspires lasting change.
