Show Notes

#28:  Growing up in a rural area, Chelsea battled substance use disorder amidst immense stigma and a severe lack of treatment resources.  Today she shares her story of resilience and recovery.  This episode is packed with inspiration, messages of hope, and real tools for the recovery journey:

  • As a self-described people pleaser, how Chelsea finally feels like a person that people really do want to be around,
  • How we can all lead by example, no matter where we are in our journey,
  • Tools Chelsea uses in her recovery year after year, such as: HALT, a pro/con lists, and doing “the next right thing,”
  • What it’s like to work in treatment centers,
  • Fitness as an unexpected source of joy in recovery,
  • Being a mom in addiction, and healing in recovery. 

With unwavering compassion for the process and a deep belief in people, Chelsea is a beacon of light in the recovery community.  This is one to share with a friend!
