I used to think that I was a lost cause, that I was so broken I couldn’t be fixed. When I started at Ignite, I wasn’t sure what to expect, but everyone was so welcoming. I had so much shame and regret for the things that I had done during my addiction and had been judged by so many, I never expected to feel so welcomed by strangers, but I was! I was partnered with a trainer and a counselor that I met with several times a week and they helped me change my life. Both of these ladies are now important people in my support group; even after I graduated their commitment and caring still lifts me up. They support me in all that I do, even with me having moved a distance away, they are still there! IGNITE helped me heal a lot of the shame, guilt and hurt that I carried inside, and showed me through love and connection I can do anything.
