Joy, Interrupted | Joy's Story

In this powerful episode of the StraitJacket Podcast, hosts Keta Loren and Dax sit down with Joy to explore her incredible journey of survival, resilience, and rebirth. Joy grew up in Louisiana, surrounded by love but also marked by profound loss at a young age. One of the most devastating moments of her life was losing her older sister to an overdose, a tragedy that left a deep scar on her heart. Struggling to process her grief, Joy eventually turned to drugs to numb the pain and found herself lost in the world of IV drug use. Her story is an honest, unfiltered look at the spiral of addiction—and the immense strength it takes to fight your way back.

Today, Joy is a true monument to what recovery and healing can look like. With eight years of sobriety, she now works with **Rock to Recovery**, using the power of music and community to help others find their own paths to healing. Her life today is a reflection of perseverance, hope, and transformation, living proof that no matter how far you fall, it’s always possible to rise. Tune in to hear Joy’s inspiring story—one of heartbreak, survival, and the beautiful life she has created against all odds.
