Eternally Amy - A Sober Mom of Eight's Journey from Jail to Joy


Apr 4, 2023

After discussing  Hindsight: Coming of age on the streets of Hollywood last week, Amy welcomes the book's author and Homeless Teen Advocate Sheryl Recinos, MD to discuss her harrowing story as a homeless youth growing up in Hollywood and her path to becoming a Physician.  Sheryl shares more about fleeing North Carolina on a bus at age 13 and the ensuing chaos when she arrived in Los Angeles.  As a pregnant teenager experiencing homelessness, Sheryl found comfort in mentor moms who helped her navigate the process of becoming a parent despite the uncertainty of her housing situation.  Amy and Sheryl chat more about how to support those who are combating these situations, and how to advocate for the next steps in solving the homeless problem.
