Facing Giants

Born into a loving home with all the prospects of success, Wiley's life seemed to be following a trajectory of promise. However, a tumultuous turn of events led her down a path of dependency and despair. Following the end of a significant relationship, Wiley found solace in the numbing embrace of alcohol. Despite the growing concerns voiced by friends and family, she remained dismissive of the severity of her addiction.

Desperate to salvage what remained of her life, Wiley reluctantly agreed to treatment and detox programs, yet her heart wasn't truly invested in recovery. Brushing off near misses with disaster, including car accidents and legal troubles, Wiley continued down her destructive path until the one-year anniversary of her cousin's tragic passing.

It was this poignant moment of reflection that served as a catalyst for change. Confronted with the stark reality of her own mortality and the possibility of losing everything she held dear, Wiley made the courageous decision to turn her life around. With the unwavering support of her family, close friends, and compassionate employer, she embarked on a journey of self-discovery and redemption.
