Today in Sense of Soul we have author and recovery advocate Mary Beth O’Connor, former Federal Judge who shares her story of overcoming addiction to methamphetamine and becoming a recovery advocate.
Clean and sober today for nearly three decades, she is proof that anyone can find their sober self, their best self, no matter how far they have fallen. 
She is the author of the memoir, From Junkie to Judge: One Woman’s Triumph Over Trauma and Addiction, former federal judge Mary Beth O’Connor shares her three-phase journey to recovery. The riveting memoir details the abuse and trauma that drove Mary Beth to shoot methamphetamine at 17, the chaos from her addiction, and how she developed a personalized recovery plan, without a higher power, that led to twenty-nine years of sobriety thus far.  
Mary Beth is a Board Member, Secretary, and Founding Investor for She Recovers Foundation. She is also a Director for LifeRing Secular Recovery and frequently develops relationships with other organizations, such as Women for Sobriety.
