Welcome Back to Warriors Unmasked! - The Podcast
Wow, are you in for a power-packed episode today.
As soon as you hit play, we want to introduce you to a woman whose journey is unfortunately all too common in the world today…a story of how childhood sexual abuse led to a young life of self-medication, addiction, lies, and isolation.
However, the story doesn’t end there.
In this episode, get to know our guest Nicole DePalma-Carson! Nicole is a recovering addict, sexual assault survivor, wife, and mother of two boys, and community recovery specialist at Dream Life Recovery.
Hear Nicole’s incredible journey of going from a blur of drugs and drinking anything to numb the
pain, to a life of service, gratitude and helping others get free. This episode will leave you with goosebumps from head to toe and the hope you need to get through any dark day on your journey.
