This is going to be everyone's new favorite, I already know! Kelly shares a harrowing story of surviving 9-11, mental health disorders, disordered eating, a rare infectious disease, delusory parasitosis, homelessness, spinal cord injury, and more.

Kelly is a fighter.

Finally getting sober at 44, Kelly shares some of the most profound wisdom and insight for healing and resilience that I have ever heard.

I can't wait to hear what you guys think!

Do y'all remember Amanda's episode? She and her sisters were all three strung out on heroin and living in their parents home. Amanda wrote to the Dr. Phil show and it worked! The producers of Dr. Phil reached out and flew the whole family out to LA and sent the sisters to treatment. The free rehab came with an incredibly high price the family couldn't have anticipated. Millions of people watched video of our guest today, Valeen Holloway meet men at motel rooms for money and shoot heroin in their house together. The backlash was intense.

After treatment, Valeen was sent to Texas where she still lives. In the years since her appearance on Dr. Phil, Amanda has continued to work very hard on her mental health and sobriety. Reconnecting with her daughter has been top of mind for Valeen for all these years and now has a second daughter with her partner, Dylan.

I am so proud of Valeen - she has turned down every other interview before this one! - and she showed up incredibly vulnerably and authentically. Let me know what y'all think!

I am so excited for y'all to meet Danielle M. I briefly connected with Danni at Dopeycon and stayed in touch through socials - and I'm so glad we did! Her story is incredible - partying her way across Europe, dating rock stars, traveling the world and of course, snorting copious amounts of cocaine ;) What began as glitz and glamour eventually became grimy, chaotic and tragic. After a physical assault that left her spiritually broken and defeated, Danni finally surrendered. Sobriety hasn't been continuous, but her recovered life is a testament that sobriety doesn't have to be linear to be a life saving and valuable journey. After one year sober, Danni relapsed four months ago, and opens up about the circumstances surrounding her relapse and what she is doing differently this time. Now in sobriety, Danni is combining her two passions - recovery and museums!

Ooooh, y'all will love Justin! I was laughing for, like, 75% of this episode at least. :)

Justin Darnell is a sober entrepreneur, comedian and social media content creator. Growing up, Justin went doctor shopping with his mom and started smoking weed and dabbling in percocets in high school. Though employed as an EMT, Justin's alcoholism managed to progress until getting sober four years ago. Now a successful entrepreneur and content creator, I know y'all will be as inspired by Justin as I am!

I can't wait to hear what y'all think of Brandon D'Ambra!

Brandon is one of the creators of the lifestyle brand,Pink7

Brandon graduated from the USC Marshal School of Business and was working in tech in Silicon Valley even as his addiction to opiates was steadily progressing. Eventually strung out on fentanyl, Brandon found himself in and out of detoxes and rehabs until finally finding success in sobriety in 2022.

Welcome back to another episode of Chasing Heroine!

So happy to have y'all here :)

Today's episode is going to be your new favorite - Tracey's story is incredibly powerful and inspiring. After narrowly surviving a serious car crash in her twenties, Tracey's use continued to escalate, eventually landing her homeless in Kensington in her late 30s.

Tracy hit Kensington right as the tranq dope epidemic began and when mysterious black wounds began appearing on her arms, no one was sure what was happening or how to treat her.

Sober now for two years, Tracey is an incredible success story - please let me know what you think!

Y'all, my guest today, Toni Becker is absolutely incredible.

Toni lives in South Africa and is a content creator with twelve years sober. Toni was plagued by disordered eating years before her addictions to meth and alcohol began. Years of partying led to homelessness, meth psychosis and severe illness and kidney failure.

In sobriety, Toni was still struggling with disordered eating. Treatment in sobriety finally helped her with that struggle. Later in sobriety, she developed facial dysmorphia induced by social media expectations and filters. Talking about these issues in sobriety was fascinating and I learned so much from Toni!

I am thrilled for you guys to hear my conversation with my mom! My mother was in town for my ten years last week, so we sat down one afternoon and chatted about both of our experiences during the chaos of my active addiction. In addition to her lived experience, my mom is also an MSW with an extensive career in social work. She is a wealth of knowledge and information about everything from addiction to forgiveness to healing from divorce.

Please let me know your thoughts on this one!

Oooh, y'all are gonna love today's episode! I sat down with Jared Klickstein, author of Crooked Smile, to chat about his addiction and path to sobriety. Jared was homeless on Skid Row and in the Tenderloin area for much of his addiction. His stories are wild and raw and I highly recommend reading his book. Jared was born in Boston, Massachusetts in 1989 to heroin-addicted parents. He spent his teenage years outside of Oakland, California after being adopted by his aunt and uncle. He attended UC Santa Cruz where he got addicted to heroin himself, dropped out, and spent nearly ten years chronically homeless and addicted around the country. His stories are wild and raw and I highly recommend reading his book.

I can't wait to hear what y'all think!
