Trauma of the Worst Kind

Meet Bonnie Goodwin, a woman who's journey through recovery has not only transformed her life but has also become a beacon of hope for others battling addiction. With eight years, eight months and one day of recovery under her belt, she travels to the town of Vandalia, sharing her unique insight on her growth in recovery. Sit tight as we delve into her personal experiences and thoughts on the power dynamics that have been at play.

Brace yourself as we navigate through the tumultuous teenage years of Bonnie, marred with substance abuse, traumatic encounters, and a desperate suicide attempt. Revisit the school halls where smoking and drinking culture took root, experience her intense loneliness amidst a crowd of 2,500, and bear witness to a distressing car ride that ended in a horrific violation of her safety. Her path to self-destruction and her turning point to seek help, a story of resilience and redemption, are testimonies of her courage.

In the concluding chapters, we shift focus to Bonnie's time in prison, her recovery journey, and the invaluable life lessons she learned along the way. From the impact of her arrest, the heart-breaking loss of her children, to the commencement of her time in Chicago, her tale is a testament of her strength and resolve. Currently, she works with Amare, extending her hard-won wisdom and serving as a recovery coach, providing a lifeline to others on a similar path. Join us as we celebrate her incredible story.
