Chasing Heroine: Addiction Recovery and Sobriety

Three Sisters ALL Addicted to Heroin & Living at Home: From the Infamous Dr Phil Episode to Texas Treatment, AA, Marriage and Mental Health Practices that WORK


Listen Later

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!
