Danielle DiPilla

This week's episode features Danielle DiPilla and "It's been real. It's been fun. It's been real fun!" Danielle is a warrior in the truest sense of the word. After a decade-long battle against several mental illness diagnoses and struggling with alcoholism and addiction, Danielle bravely took the steps to get help by advocating for herself. Pushing the “reset button”, Danielle entered herself into a rehabilitation facility and found solace in the center’s personalized care to help her with her Major Depressive Disorder, anxiety,  and addictions. Danielle left the facility with Hope & joy in her heart. She plunged head first into a 12-step program; finding a sponsor, going to meetings, and getting in service. She is focusing on her sobriety and navigating life as a sober woman. She aspires to work in the recovery field, focusing on addictions counseling to help other young people recognize their value and get the help they deserve, just as she did.
