Amber walked into Restoration House with her five-year-old daughter, not knowing if there'd even be a bed for her – she was the only mom in a line of strangers, waiting three hours in the August heat before she found out.
There was a bed. From there, Amber went through 30 days at Restoration, moved into the full program at My Sister's House, and came out the other side with a job, her GED, and a mindset she says she barely recognizes compared to who she used to be.
In this episode of Unseen Atlanta, Amber talks about learning to trust her advocates, freezing up the first time she had to speak in front of a room full of strangers, and the moment she finally had something to say to the version of herself who got her there.
It's a story about what it means to finally feel seen – and what happens when you let someone else help carry the weight.
