Pregnancy and Addiction, Part One: A Family Story of Struggles, Recovery, Sobriety and Pre-Mature Birth

On today's podcast we discuss pregnancy and addiction with our guest Traci Cates, who is a mother living sober, who survived a life of addiction and has the incredible desire to help others understand addiction. She wants to help young women experiencing addiction and pregnancy find hope, support, and share more about her sweet baby boy who helped her find strength to seek sobriety and maintain it, for him.

 

We have separated Traci’s podcast into two releases and today you will hear the historical piece of her addiction, the challenges she faced every time she tried to gain or maintain sobriety, and her desire to have and live a full life with her kids.

 

We are so proud of Traci and extremely touched she is willing to share her experiences so others may understand addiction and find the support they need.

 

Thank you for joining us today as you open your heart to compassionately hear Traci’s words and story!!
