Chasing Heroine: Addiction Recovery and Sobriety

Jeannine was an active drug addict and alcoholic for 15 years - her using led to multiple arrests, homelessness, and the loss of absolutely everything - which she considers to be the best thing that ever happened to her. Sober since January 15, 2015, and now a successful fitness entrepreneur and instructor, content creator and public speaker, she is committed to sharing both her own and her guest’s stories in the hopes that they may help guide and inspire others seeking a similar path of recovery and healing.
