Do you have a family member/loved one srtuggling with addiction? https://www.realrecoverytalk.com/frc

🎙 In This Episode:

Drug addiction. Alcoholism. Prostitution. Jail. Institutions. Trauma that most people couldn't even imagine. Lorraine lived through it all. At just 24 years old, Lorraine was lost in active addiction, caught in the grip of heroin, crack cocaine, and sex trafficking. For months, she was held against her will, beaten, sold, and stripped of her humanity. She was certain she would die in that house. But by nothing short of a miracle — she escaped.

Now, after 9 years clean and sober, Lorraine is a licensed therapist helping others recover from addiction and trauma. Her story is gut-wrenching, raw, and real — but it's also filled with hope, redemption, and healing. If you or someone you love is struggling with addiction, this story will remind you that recovery is always possible, no matter how far gone it may seem.

💬 Topics We Cover: Her descent into addiction at age 12 The moment she was chained and trafficked
