Bridget Dansie grew up in Lehi UT back when it was a rural farming community. In many ways she had a normal, healthy life. However behind her endearing personality and desire to please was a secret that was the catalyst that created a need, as she describes “I was always hustling for my worth”. She moves out of her house at 18 and set out to prove she had worth. For many years she lived as a functional addict until one day her 3 children were taken by DCFS and she along with her husband went into a tail spin. In and out of jail 22 times in a year, her last visit brought her in contact with three very influential people and the Captain Your Story model. Listen in as she describes that emotional experience and her description of how life has been on the upswing ever since.
