This is one of our most highly anticipated guest returns.  Zen friends, please welcome back to Barrett Gargala.  This time she is joined in the studio with her father, Nick Gargala.  You first met Barrett on Ep#68, as she recounted her battle with addiction. Barrett's story covered her relapse and how the love and acceptance of her family were instrumental in her seeking the help she needed. It was one of our most powerful episodes to date, so it only seemed appropriate to have her again to answer the question--- what's next?  Since Nick Gargala (aka Papa G) is over 30 years sober and was such a pivotal roll in Barrett's story, we wanted to have him on to help shed light on how he coped with Barrett's struggle with addiction.   Today's episode is an emotional story of Papa G's road to recovery, addiction through the eyes of a father, and how Barrett plans on sharing her story to empower others.  The path of healing is long and messy.  Enjoy the show.  Barrett's IG: @bgargala Louisville Recovery Location website: https://www.recoveryresourcehub.org/community/louisville      --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/crazy-zen-life/message

Ep #101: Life After Addiction; a glimpse into the lifelong journey of recovery: Barrett Gargala & Nick Gargala

There is no story more raw and real than the one of our guest today.  Meet Barrett Gargala.  Shannon and Brittany first met Barrett when she was just a young, '20- something' trying to make it in the business of Lululemon.  Little did they know, Barrett was struggling with some dark addiction demons that traveled with her since her college days.  Barret first started avoiding her problems early into her college days and it wasn't until 18 months ago that she finally sought the help she always needed.  As Barrett says, "you could have put me in a steel box and I still would have been an addict."  Learn more about Barrett and how she is still learning to love herself back to life after addiction.
