Being a Hope Dealer w/Christin Day | The Hopeaholics Podcast
In this episode of the Hopeaholics Podcast, Christin Day shares a raw and emotional account of her journey through addiction, trauma, and recovery. She opens up about becoming a teen mom, experiencing multiple pregnancies and losses, and entering into an early marriage that quickly unraveled amid infidelity and violence. Her story follows a spiral into meth use, arrests, and jail time even while pregnant, leading to the painful decision to give her daughter up for adoption and later the loss of custody of another child. Christin recalls cycles of abusive relationships, relapses, and moments of deep despair including suicide attempts before finally reaching a turning point where she committed to recovery for herself rather than others. She speaks about the healing power of therapy, her baptism as a moment of release from guilt and shame, and how she transformed her pain into purpose by mentoring others, sponsoring women in recovery, and returning to jails and prisons to bring hope. Alongside heartbreaking moments such as losing her first sponsor to fentanyl, Christin emphasizes that her life today is built on faith, service, and the daily work of sobriety, proving that recovery, while never easy, is possible and worth it.
