In this episode, I talk with Sifa, a 25 year old woman whose journey through addiction began long before most people even know who they are.
At just 13, Sifa’s first drink was presented as an initiation into adulthood, a moment that opened a door to years of alcohol and substance use. What followed were seasons of chaos, rebellion and searching. From school expulsions to identity struggles, Sifa lived behind a confident smile while silently fighting her own battles.
But God had another plan 💜
After a turning point conversation with a compassionate doctor, Sifa began her path to recovery. Today, she continues to walk that road in community, reminding us that healing often starts the moment we stop hiding.
This is a story about restoration, courage and the quiet power of God’s love in our weakest moments. 🌸
