    Great Story. You have come a long way in every aspect, you should consider being a motivational speaker for addicts.

    I would absolutely love to be a motivational speaker! Right now I'm in nursing school, and planning to work as an RN in a recovery center when I graduate and pass my boards. My only issue with being a motivational speaker is that I have no idea where to start in becoming one! I've even asked at my NA meetings, and nobody really has a clue. I suppose I should look into it further, though. Everyone tells me that I should. Thank you for your kind words. <3
