15 May 2025

Description

Note from Jeannine: Christina's story is one of my favorite all time episodes of the show. Just an incredible story of strength and resilience. This is an encore run of her episode, new episodes return next week after my TedX Talk! Thank you for being patient with me, I love you guys!TRIGGER WARNING******sex trafficking, domestic abuse, assault, SA and pregnancy termination My conversation today with Christina Garofalo will have you both laughing and crying. Christina is a survivor in the truest form of the word. I was blown away by her vulnerability, authenticity and the strength she has shown in escaping the world she was trapped in, making it back to her hometown and family in San Diego AND tapering down from an incredibly high dose of methadone (170 mL). Christina now has a sponsor, works steps, goes on twelve step retreats and does EMDR therapy - she has worked so hard to find healing, peace and safety and I am personally so proud of her.Connect with Christina on ⁠Instagram⁠Connect with Christina on ⁠TikTok⁠DM me on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Message me on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Facebook⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Listen AD FREE & workout with me on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Patreon⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Connect with me on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠TikTok⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Email me [email protected] you next week!
