In this week's episode, Casey Scott and Dr. Matt Woolley are joined by Terra Leben (Care Coordinator - Odyssey House) to talk about feeling like she never fit in with her peers growing up, why she wanted to take her life at 8-years-old, and how seeking treatment as a teenager would shape who she would be as a young adult.

Then Terra opens up about relapsing while in a treatment program as a teenager, being abused by her boyfriend and her boyfriend's dad as a fifteen-year-old, and the daunting reality she found herself in when she got the news that she was pregnant. 

Terra also talks about how her substance fueled teenage years pushed her to the brink of suicide, what her rock bottom looked like as she began to grow into an adult, and how she's learned from her years of abuse to make a change for so many others who are out there struggling with addiction and substance abuse.
