Trenda Hedges: Recover Yourself with MartinJon
Manage episode 311420960 series 3120290
In this episode, I am talking Trenda Hedges the Wellness and Recovery Program Manager of Illinois’ Warm Line. Trenda has a history of addiction and has been working with the state of Illinois to help those struggling with, and curious about, addiction and recovery. She educates people about recovery by addressing it in communities in hopes to remove stigmas and resistance. Her recovery, and relationship with God, is earmarked upon losing her son, which we talk about in this episode. This, of course, would be difficult for everyone, but for someone who had previously been so associated with escaping how they feel, this is more than tragic because she was only beginning to learn how to cope with emotions. Her recovery is solid today because of her relationship with God and I want to applaud her for finding her way through that and growing as herself. I am so grateful for her sharing with me and openly expressing her faith and beliefs with us.

With episodes like this one, I am extremely grateful. Although Trenda and I have different ways of looking at God and how he relates to our individual recoveries, I love her approach and her expression of recovery. Broadening these conversations is part of my mission. I cannot express how grateful I am to have so many wonderful people trust me to interview them like @coachleetorres @rawrecoverytalk @carmellpelly and so many others, it is my hope, that I also am able to contribute to their lives and show you how you might better see your growth.
