あらすじ・解説
Francie's story is one of resilience, hope, and a commitment to helping others facing similar challenges. In this conversation, Christina reconnects with Francie, a guest who shared her story of recovery from gambling addiction in a previous episode (March/2023). They discuss Francie's progress since then, including her two years of abstinence from gambling and her involvement in Gamblers Anonymous (GA). Francie reflects on the emotional journey she has been through, including the grief she experienced and the importance of finding support from others who understand her struggle. She also shares her passion for helping others in recovery and her commitment to being a sponsor in GA. Despite the challenges she still faces, Francie expresses gratitude for the beautiful life she has now and the hope she has found in recovery. **If you are struggling with your mental health or having thoughts of self harm, please seek the help of professionals.
