Trigger Warning: This episode discusses substance use, psychosis, hospitalizations, and intense mental health struggles. Please take care while listening.

Brou’s story is one of the wildest, rawest, and most inspiring journeys you’ll hear. From high-pressure kitchens in NYC, Philly, and San Francisco to a full mental health collapse, psychosis, and finally a long climb back into recovery — she’s lived through what most people don’t talk about.

Her clean date is February 19, 2020, forged in the stillness of lockdown, service work feeding 500 people a day, and finally learning who she was without substances.

Today she’s a thriving digital creator and restaurant storyteller in Philly, living a life she once never thought she’d reach.

This episode is for anyone who’s ever wondered if they could come back from rock bottom. You can. Brou did — and she’s telling the truth about how.
