Hey beautiful humans,
Today I am super proud to be celebrating 1000 days clean of crystal meth !!!
And releasing this very special Remix…
For those that don’t know my journey so far: 10 years ago when I was living in Sydney and Melbourne for several years, I initially got introduced to ice via the dating apps, and subsequently got caught up in a vicious cycle of drug and sex addiction. Because I mainly used as a hook up drug on weekends, this quickly became a regular pattern of abuse that I struggled to break free from. To the point where I wasn’t even really enjoying what I was doing anymore.
Something had to change!
And it most certainly did!
My mother passed away.
And not long after, I made the decision to relocate to Lismore.
Since then it’s been one major tree change, three years of local community, connection, reflection, recovery, grief, loss, love, support, and of course the amazing natural healing power of Mother Nature!
I’d previously lost many good people in my life, work opportunities, my health, my reputation, and of course a shitload of money due to my addiction.
The added stigma surrounding ice is still rife in our community, so I totally understand how very difficult it is to even open up and reach out for help, without being judged. It’s hard enough to try and quit crystal meth to get clean.
But I am more than happy to be that uncomfortable conversation starter for anyone who needs it.
I know that publicly sharing my own personal story has also helped to motivate and inspire other friends to come clean about being clean. Huge kudos to you too! And I hope that continues to be the case moving forward…
Massive thanks to all those who have been here with me on this “manic to Magic” journey. You know who you are, and for that I am truly grateful and I love you dearly !!!
Easing into my 50s, I’m happy to say that I’m living my best life, so much healthier, happier, physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually too.
Thankfully, Music has always been there, my life passion, and a constant source of happiness.
So when I decided to release a commemorative Remix for today, and knowing the power of music and how it connects people, I thought how very fitting it would be to work on “Last Night A DJ Saved My Life”.
The song is one of my all time faves, and I really hope you love the Deep House treatment I’ve given it, so enjoy!
And as always…
Peace, love, and tunes.
