In this uplifting episode, Amanda Marino and Sarah Frias sit down with Keesha Scott—mom of three, co-founder of Guardian Recovery, and author of the upcoming book Cake for Dinner. With 23 years sober, Keesha shares her journey of rebuilding after loss, raising kids as a single mom, and finding her purpose helping adolescents who don’t fit the mold.
She opens up about parenting through chaos, co-parenting with compassion, and why her daughter’s defiant spirit taught her more than any parenting book ever could. From starting Guardian in a tiny Delray office to leading programs nationwide, Keesha’s story is one of grit, heart, and choosing to rise again—and yes, sometimes that means having cake for dinner.
This is real talk about recovery, motherhood, and embracing imperfection with grace.
