    🎙️ Join host Shana Epps in this powerful episode of Controlled Chaos, where she dives deep into the transformative journey of recovery with an incredible guest.

    In this episode, we welcome a courageous woman who has faced the darkest depths of addiction and emerged stronger than ever. In her late teens and early twenties, a series of heartbreaking events plunged her into profound sadness, leading her to seek solace in drugs and alcohol. Once a star student and a promising leader, she found herself lost, homeless, and battling a severe heroin addiction.

    Listen as she shares her raw and honest story—a journey filled with emotional turmoil, the chase for heroin, and the miraculous moment that led her into recovery. Discover how the tools of twelve-step meetings, sponsorship, and a commitment to service have not only helped her find herself again but have also allowed her to evolve into a kinder, stronger, and smarter version of herself.

    Through this episode, you’ll learn about the power of resilience, the importance of community in recovery, and how embracing a spiritual life can transform pain into purpose.
