Destiny Garcia grew up in a life of drug and violence. Not knowing anything different, she thought abuse, violence and drugs were normal. At 16, she started into the drug life and remained that way for the majority of life. She tells her heart wrenching story of trying to raise her kids in that world. She spent 7 years as a “prisoner” to her husband before breaking free and ending up on the streets living a life of constant drug use, theft and depravity. Listen in as she comes to herself and thanks to a program called Project Rio Grand finally gets the help she needs. Her tale brings her through rehab to the support of her son who never gave up on her and finally to work in the county mayor office. Now the CEO of Clean Slate Utah, she is showing others the way out of dysfunctional and into true normal. Buckle up as she tells her emotional story of survival and redemption..Sponsors & Partners The Other Side Academy -
