Katie O'Malley joins Ty in the Big Z Media studio and discusses her ups and downs that led to her almost 4 years of continuous recovery. Born in the St. Clair County, Illinois, Katie is the daughter of her late father, Michael, a prominent and respected judge, who shares her travels to Manhattan and where she was on September 11th, 2001. She also discussed with transparency how her addiction spiraled after she tried heroin for the first and fell in love immediately. As she descended into her active addiction, she accidentally struck a pedestrian with her vehicle, which led to darker and more depressive days after St. Louis news agencies picked up on the story and it was publicized. She felt she was a failure and an embarrassment to her family and had to seek professional guidance to deal with her conflictions. She eventually turned her life around after completing a residential treatment program and is now happily married, attending a Certification Peer Recovery Specialist program at SIUE, a local university, and interns at a local Recovery Community Organization (RCO), Amare.
