Episode Details

Kattie was exposed to meth at a very young age. Both her parents struggled with meth addiction, which resulted in a very dysfunctional home. When she was arrested at 19, Kattie realized she didn’t want to continue going down the same path. She went on to be a counselor of high-risk populations and remained sober for a number of years. After a relapse – or recurrence of symptoms – she was arrested on federal charges and spent three years in prison. That’s when Kattie finally started to accept help from the people around her. She found a loving, supportive community to help her maintain wellness.

Today, Kattie is married with a young son and two Great Danes. Through her work as a peer coach and supervisor, she’s able to give back and help others. She loves being there for her members and sees the best in them, even when they can’t.
