In this episode, Paula shares her personal journey with gambling harm through social casinos and then, later on, online gambling. Paula details how it began during her pregnancy and the emotional struggles that accompanied it. She discusses the impact of societal stigma on motherhood and the challenges of finding community support. Paula emphasizes the importance of building a better relationship with money and the role of tough love in recovery. Throughout her story, she highlights the significance of being present for her family and offers hope to others facing similar struggles.
