Description
Are drugs the ‘problem’ in your life or are your mind, body and soul actually treating them as the (self-sabotaging) *solution*? From a ‘normal’ childhood and life at an all-girls private school, life took a 180-degree turn when, 15 years later, Charlotte Jackson found herself in the midst of a relationship breakdown, a four-year crystal meth addiction, and an abusive relationship. Today, Charlotte Jackson shares her journey of how she overcame drugs and alcohol, completely on her own, without rehab, on the other side of the world. She also delves into how understanding the pain, disconnection, and loneliness beneath the addiction helped her uncover the truth. Through self-connection, self-awareness, and a touch of spiritual awakening, Charlotte conquered her four-year crystal meth addiction and is now assisting others in discovering the truth of their own reality.Today, Louise & Charlotte discuss:How Charlotte’s strong anti-drug stance slowly changed Whether her childhood and teenage years held any clues that this journey might have lain aheadHer position in the family as the ‘responsible’ eldest childWorking out the real wounds, patterns and cycles behind any addictionWhether loneliness is the real driver of trauma and addictionHow a spiritual awakening and belief in a higher power helped this journey; How healing has changed her relationship with her family, and herself; andHow to help others who are in this situation too. -----⭐ Want more bonus episodes, Home Truths, Voice Notes from Lu and access to our community area The House?
