In this deeply moving and ultimately uplifting episode, Christina Dent sits down with Pattie Vargas—a mother who has lived through the heartbreak of losing a son to overdose and the joy of watching her daughter find lasting recovery.
Pattie shares her family’s journey with remarkable honesty, from years of struggle and loss to an unexpected turning point: discovering NET Recovery, a device designed to ease the pain of withdrawal and help reduce cravings. It was this breakthrough approach, used at Isaiah House in Kentucky, that helped her daughter begin a new life after years of homelessness and addiction.
More than a story of loss, this is a story of what’s possible. Pattie offers hard-won insight, fierce compassion, and a vision for recovery rooted in connection, innovation, and hope. If you’ve ever wondered whether real change is possible—even after everything—this conversation is for you.
