Episode 4 Part II: Recovery is Possible, From Trauma to Healing
September is National Recovery Month (Recovery Month). Recovery is defined as a process of change where individuals improve their health and wellness, live self-directed lives, and strive to reach their full potential. Recovery can only be achieved with a determined hope and belief that "Recovery is Possible. These three words are powerful and filled with the hope of a better tomorrow. It is these three words that were the driving force that inspired our guest Antoine Roston. It has been over 4 years since he was shot six times with bullets hitting him near his left shoulder area, in his right jaw, and in the back of his head; it was a miracle that he survived. However, survival wasn't good enough. Antoine was determined that he would move from surviving to thriving and recover to the best of his ability what he had lost. His belief in God, support of a loving family and community and drive to never give up gave him to strength he needed to move from trauma to healing. We invite you to listen to this inspiring episode of how Antoine went from tragedy to triumph.
