My name is Emily Laing. I'm an actress, writer, singer, recovering addict, survivor and currently en route back from the land of self destruct.
In January 2022 I suffered a nervous breakdown and was convinced my life was over. Turns out - it wasn't. I white knuckled my way out and want to help others who feel the same way that I did. So...
Have you ever found yourself feeling entirely alone? In a place so dark that you can't see a way out? Me too!
Rock bottoms, codependency, rehab, C/PTSD, survival, shameovers. You name it, we discuss it.
Join the journey of recovery and healing and rid the shame!
