About this episode

Do you have a family member/loved one srtuggling with addiction? https://www.realrecoverytalk.com/frc

In this episode of Real Recovery Talk, Tom and Ben sit down with Franchesca, who shares her powerful story of getting clean without traditional addiction treatment. After multiple failed attempts at rehab, Franchesca found recovery in the rooms of a 12-step fellowship — and she's been clean for 13 years.

This conversation dives into her early struggles, being a teen mom, losing and regaining custody of her son, detoxing without medical help, and how community, surrender, and honesty saved her life. Whether you're in recovery yourself or walking alongside a loved one, this story is a reminder that there isn't just one way to get sober.
