Now 21 months sober, she reflects on the realities of recovery and shares the tools that have helped her live a healthy, balanced life.In this heartfelt episode, Michelle discusses the importance of setting boundaries in social situations, the power of peer support, and the strength it takes to ask for help. She opens up about her preventative double mastectomy and hysterectomy after testing positive for the BRCA gene, and how those life-altering decisions shaped her outlook on health and resilience. From navigating public life in recovery to taking on the challenge of Dancing on Ice, Michelle offers honest, practical advice for anyone facing adversity — and proves that lasting change is possible.If you liked this episode then Michelle returns to Believe in People 18 months later in episode 44 ⬇️ https://open.spotify.com/episode/2SMNgB6kBSnZxPi4vpna9whttps://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/44-michelle-heaton-fame-fear-fighting-back-addiction/id1617239923?i=1000654401057Click here to text our host, Matt, directly!🎧 Enjoyed this episode?
