Meet Shana Epps, a warrior who battled alcoholism for most of her life. After struggling through various traditional methods like rehab and counseling without success, she finally discovered her unique toolbox nearly three years ago. Since then, she has been thriving in her recovery journey. With two decades of experience in the treatment industry, Shana's passion lies in helping women and mothers struggling to not only achieve sobriety but also to craft a fulfilling life in recovery. Drawing from her own experiences, she founded Controlled Chaos, a fittingly named business where she serves as a certified sobriety, health, and wellness coach. Shana also leads a supportive women's group where you can find tips and support regarding all things life and sobriety.  Additionally, she hosts a podcast where she delves into conversations about recovery journeys and life beyond addiction under the Controlled Chaos umbrella. You can book a free sobriety start call with her, or become part of her women’s group, on her website www.controlledchaoscoaching.com.
