I Overcame My Addiction In Prison | Julie Muir | The Sit Down
As a young person, Julie Muir struggled with addiction and was often in and out of prison as a result. While she was in for the final time, she met a peer supporter who inspired her to get clean inside, and she hasn’t looked back since. Julie is now Director of Recovery at The Forward Trust, the same organisation that helped her when she was inside. Here she shares her story of what it’s like to have a young son while in prison, how she chooses recovery each day, and her aspirations for the future.
