Alcoholism: A Battle Worth Winning with Heather Kittelson
Hot topic! New podcast is out now!
This week on the Spartan Leadership Podcast, it’s a true privilege to host a proven, resilient woman, Heather Kittelson. She has gone through challenging postpartum depression and alcoholism and won the battle. She is the host of the Fortitude podcast, where she inspires strugglers to follow the path of hope and redemption.
Join her as she shares the undeniable struggles of an alcoholic and the intervention that made her open up about addiction. Discover the best advice to share with those facing alcoholism or mental issues in general and how to find the light at the end of the tunnel.
