Controlled Chaos a Recovery Podcast

Shana Epps

Welcome to "Controlled Chaos," the podcast where we dive into the world of recovery, sharing stories of experience, strength, and hope from those who have been there and made it through. No matter where you are in your battle with addiction, alcoholism, or mental health struggles, know that there is a way out. Throughout my sobriety journey, I have often felt alone and doubted my ability to stay sober. Starting this podcast in my room just two months ago, I had a dream of reaching people like me—those who felt hopeless. As a girl in recovery, I began with zero followers, but with a dream of offering hope to even just one person. The mission of this podcast is to connect, inspire, and provide hope to those feeling lost or struggling. Remember, the opposite of addiction and isolation is sobriety and connection. Let's come together through the "Controlled Chaos" podcast and support each other on the journey to healing and growth. Hit that subscribe button, leave a review, and let's build a community of support and understanding.
