Lisa Fortner’s journey is one of loss, growth, and healing.

Addiction once created distance between her and her son, leaving behind broken trust and missed moments. But through her time in a therapeutic community, Lisa did the hard work by learning accountability, honesty, and how to truly show up.

Today, she’s living in recovery and working with DogStar, using her story to support others.

Even more powerful, she’s rebuilt a strong, loving relationship with her son and her family.
Lisa’s story is proof that healing is real and it’s never too late to rebuild what matters most.
