A year ago, I had the honor of being a guest on podcast Co-Dependent Me host by Tamala Shaw.

I had the opportunity to share my experience, strength and hope on my journey of reclaiming my life.

The Bible says while we where still sinners (Romans 5-8), Christ died for us.

As I reflect, I can see how I was always being cared for even in active addiction.
