Baring My Soul: From Addiction to Recovery

Join my guest in this inspiring conversation on strength, empowerment, choice, and leaving behind trauma and addiction.
Christine MacDonald is an ex-exotic dancer, who navigated the shadows of self-doubt and the heavy chains of addiction. It wasn't an overnight metamorphosis, but through sheer determination and a resolute refusal to be defined by her past, Christine gradually peeled away the layers of despair. She replaced the intoxicating allure of temporary escapes with the hard-earned satisfaction of self-improvement and education. This transformative path led her to not only overcome her addiction but to also establish herself as a successful businesswoman. Her enterprise, born from the depths of her own struggles, aimed to empower women, offering them not just confidence but a chance at redemption and self-discovery. Christine's story, a beacon of hope, illuminates the possibility of change, inspiring others to believe in the potential for renewal within themselves, regardless of where they come from or what they have endured.
