Episode 176

Living an authentic life, recovering from addiction, and having a life that is centered around recovery and self-love is beyond possible for anyone.

In this episode, I’m pleased to have my friend, Melissa Kreutz on the podcast to give you encouragement and inspiration to seek recovery from addiction.

If Melissa can get sober and enjoy life after addiction, anyone can, including you. 

Melissa Kreutz is a writer, podcaster, mommy, and sober woman.  In sobriety, she has found mind-blowing happiness through lessons and strength that she never dared to explore; now, she shares her stories with others in hopes they may feel less alone.

She met her husband, Cody Kreutz, in rehab, and together they host the podcast, We Are The Stigma, where they use honesty, open-mindedness, and humor to connect with their guests on a range of topics - from stay-at-home-dad to sex work - nothing is off limits!
