Three years ago, my family was in the trenches of addiction. This weekend, we celebrated my son’s wedding — a full-circle moment of love, recovery, and gratitude. In this short and heartfelt episode, I share how family, friends, and community can transform the hardest seasons into celebrations worth remembering.

Three years ago, my family was in the trenches of addiction — living day to day with heartbreak, fear, and the pain of watching someone you love self-destruct.
This past weekend, we celebrated my son’s wedding.

In this short and heartfelt episode, I share a powerful full-circle moment that reminded me of the impact of family, friends, community, and support in the journey of recovery. It’s about facing the hard moments, soaking in the joyful ones, and recognizing how far we’ve come when we do the work of healing.

Whether you’re in the middle of your own storm or celebrating a hard-earned victory, this is your reminder to keep going — because there is light, love, and possibility on the other side.

What You’ll Hear in This Episode:

• How a family moves from heartbreak to celebration in just a few years.
• The role of community, friendship, and support in recovery.
• Why sitting in the moment — both the painful and the joyful — matters for healing.
• A personal reflection on gratitude, growth, and what it means to truly come full circle.
• How to hold on to hope when you’re still in the middle of the hard stuff.

If this episode gave you hope or reminded you of your own full-circle moment, share it with someone who needs to hear it.
And if you’re walking through a tough season right now, let this be your sign that change is possible — for you, your family, and your future.
