Description:
In this deeply moving episode of The Begin Again Podcast, host Gary Menkes sits down with Candice Black to explore her transformative journey from addiction to sobriety. Candice opens up about her early encounters with alcohol and painkillers, rooted in self-esteem struggles and an abusive high school relationship that led to suicide attempts. As she navigated adulthood, Candice found herself trapped in a cycle of substance abuse, which intensified during the isolation of the Covid-19 pandemic. Despite several setbacks, including a DUI that nearly cost her everything, Candice made a life-changing decision to quit drinking in February 2023. Throughout the episode, she shares the profound impact of her recovery, including her journey of self-discovery and the role her daughter played as her "saving grace."
