You. Hey, guys. My name is Mary. I would like to start this podcast because I believe I can help a lot of people. So I am a recovering addict. I was in active addiction for most of my life and my daughter saved me. Love to write poetry. I love to travel. I love to talk about metaphysical ideas, new age things. I love to talk about special needs parenting. I have a daughter who is autistic

So I hope your time and Swell is a good one. And it's great to have your presence here, to just lock our of people who are there to listen to you and support you and also just journey with you, because that's what this is all about, telling stories and connecting

They don't really feel like there's, you know, a lot of people out there that have these experiences. But I totally relate, like a lot of my friends that I've stayed in contact to in recovery, they have these very real, very traumatizing, sometimes experiences that they've made it through and come out the other side through the help of people in recovery. And I really think this is a great platform to just share your story and also help other people

Another thing I would like to point out is that I don't really like to get into the God aspect too much because I know some people have different views, but I don't know what your experience was, but my experience was just the only way I could explain it was it was a spiritual awakening. It was a higher power. It was me getting down on my knees and surrendering my will to God
