Morae Morris: The Dimes in Recovery | The Hopeaholics Podcast

Morae Morris: The Dimes in Recovery | The Hopeaholics Podcast

In this deeply moving episode of The Hopeaholics Podcast, Morae Morris lays bare her extraordinary journey through 32 years of addiction to over 11 years of sobriety, weaving a narrative of raw pain, spiritual rediscovery, and unyielding hope. With her infectious humor and heartfelt honesty, she shares vivid stories—like finding dimes in unlikely places as signs from God, narrowly escaping suicide during a dark relapse, and navigating physical hardships from surgeries to a septic infection—all while holding fast to her faith. Morae’s reflections on rebuilding her bond with her son, whose 31st birthday coincides with the recording, and her transformative embrace of the 12-step program highlight her resilience and growth. Her candid admissions, from joking about addiction to swearing in prayers, reveal a survivor’s spirit that refuses to be defined by past trauma, inspiring listeners to find strength in their own struggles and cling to the promise of recovery.
