I have built my life from a drug addict to 7 years in recovery and most of my tattoos are part of that story. I love my ink!

Learn MoreMy most recent tattoo was a cover up from a tattoo I got when I was 18 and deep into my addiction. I covered it up with sunflowers because they’re often seen as a metaphor for looking toward light, truth, or higher power.
If your ink could speak, what would it say?My tattoos tell a story of my addiction and recovery and are deeply personal and meaningful. My tattoos are a permanent reminder of who I am and where I came from.
What would you do with the $25,000?I would pay of credit card debt and loans, pay off my car, and put some of the money on a down payment for a house. I would also donate to women that are new in recovery to help them get into sober living housing.
