Empowering Through Empathy and Perseverance with Brandee Izquierdo
(My bad on the echo-y quality of the intro and outro to those of you who care a lot about sound quality it's not amazing this week)
On this week's episode of the Choose Your Struggle podcast, Jay chats with Brandee Izquierdo, the Executive Director of SAFE Project. SAFE was started by Admiral James and Mary Winnefeld after they lost their son to an overdose. Brandee is over ten years in recovery and has dedicated her life to helping others and advocating for better services for those struggling with issues of Addiction. You can learn more about SAFE at their website: https://www.safeproject.us/ and Brandee at her LinkedIn page: https://www.linkedin.com/in/brandee-izquierdo-mpa-309a0877/.
