Sonya was introduced to substances at 11 years old and found that they worked well to help with the emotional pain she was feeling early on in her life. As time went on her addiction progressed to different substances and she found herself battling to keep custody of her kids. A knight in shining armour showed up at the shed that she was living in on July 1, 2019. It was not your fairytale type of knight in shining armour it was a police officer there to serve a warrant for her arrest. This was not her first arrest but hopefully her last. This was her turning point and this is Sonya's story on the sober motivation podcast.
