Julie Lawrence - Marginalization, Addiction, Recovery & Empowerment. (Coast Newsletter Editor & Founder of DEFY Magazine)

Afternoon Pint

Julie Lawrence shares her journey from being sidelined in a male-dominated news and magazine editorial world to creating her own platform that champions women's voices. DEFY Magazine is a digital feminist magazine for unapologetic working women. https://defymag.ca/ Julie also is editor for The Coast Daily Newsletter which you can receive daily for free if you subscribe to https://www.thecoast.ca/

This episode has a lot to do about the personal battles and the external forces that shape our lives. Julie gives us an authentic take on what it feels like to go through workplace sexism & discrimination. She as also takes us through a heart-breaking story of addiction where she lost nearly everything before a remarkable recovery.
Julie's story was inspiring and we thank her for trusting us to tell some of her story. If you, or a loved one suffer with addiction and need support, there is help. In Nova Scotia, you can contact the Provincial Mental Health and Addictions Crisis Line 1-888-429-8167
