Beating the Odds: From Addiction to Advocacy - meet Elissa Tierney
When we think about the opioid crisis, a few things immediately come to mind: Mexican cartels, substance users lost in the haze of addiction, and those who have lost their lives or their loved ones to overdose. So where are the success stories of those who have weathered the storm of addiction and found their way back to the light? Our guest today is Elissa Tierney, Public Relations Specialist at Sea Change RCO and Co-Founder of Worth Saving. Having survived and conquered addiction herself, Elissa knows first-hand the long, hard journey required to emerge from the depths of addiction. Now as an advocate for changing the shame and stigma attached to addiction, Elissa works to spread awareness and get people the help they deserve. Join us as we discuss: Falling into and escaping addiction from the substance user’s point of viewIs it the norm that it takes visiting 15-20 different treatment facilities before long-term recovery is even a possibility?The costs and benefits of a sober living community and harm reduction programs To make sure you never miss an episode of The Opioid Matrix, subscribe on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, the website, or your favorite podcast player.
