From Prison to Parenthood: An Addicts Journey Home.

Published: April 20, 2022, 11 a.m.

“I lost everything, kids, family, health. All I had left was the drugs in my hand.”

Chantal's rock bottom was Pinegrove Correctional Center. Her family was grateful she landed there, they knew they couldn't help her. It was her only hope.

"I couldn't stop, someone needed to stop me. Prison saved my life."

Tune in this week and listen to Chantal #takeofftheblinders around addiction and the devastation that comes with it.

We'll talk about what she was like, how her family tried to help her, and the darkness she faced that brought her the support she has today.

"To my recovery community;

The promises are true, thank you for helping me, thank you for my recovery."

You won't want to miss this one friends as we journey from gang life and insanity to service, parenthood, and community this week right here, on Hard Knox Talks.

Buckle up!
