In this powerful episode, we sit down with someone who’s been fighting a war on two fronts—navigating life without stable housing while also facing the grip of addiction. This honest, raw conversation highlights how deeply connected these two struggles often are, and the strength it takes to push forward through both.
We talk about the barriers to recovery, the stigma people face, and the importance of community, accountability, and consistency. Since the closure of our day center, we’ve seen firsthand how the lack of daily support can send people into a downward spiral. This episode puts a face and voice to that reality.
Listen in, learn, and lean into compassion.
