Provider Spotlight - From Trauma to Triumph: Life after Dirty John with Tonia Bales

In today's world, we are constantly surrounded by the influence of a perfect life. We snap pictures of ourselves and post them on social media to show just how happy we are. Yet the dark side of life is seldom addressed. People you know and work with may seem to be happy while in reality they are struggling with depression, mental illness, or even abuse at home.  It’s hard to recognize the signs or red flags but when you get that gut feeling, do you act on it?  Do you reach out and tell someone?  Or even just ask the person if they are ok?  Today’s episode is a cautionary tale for everyone.  Tonia Bales thought she had a perfect life, but learned after 10 years of marriage that it was all a lie. Tune in to today's episode to hear her side of the story and how she embraced a positive outlook that kept her moving forward.  Tonia now travels around the country speaking on Substance Use Disorder and Diversion. She’s also produced a podcast detailing her personal story, titled “The First Wife: John Meehan’s Reign of Terror”, available on Audible.You can reach out to Tonia onFB: Tonia Sells BalesIG: @ToniaSells or @Blush_Boss_InjectorIf you need help for yourself or another, please reach out:https://www.aana.com/practice/health-and-wellness-peer-assistanceAANA Helpline: 1-800-654-5167To find out more about investing in multifamily real estate and alternative investments, schedule a call at https://www.oncallinvestments.com/To find out more about investing in multifamily real estate schedule a call at https://www.oncallinvestments.com/Are you a healthcare provider exploring options outside of your traditional career path?
