Savanah grew up in Los Angeles where her family modeled the "fast life". Secrecy, addiction, money and power were constants in her upbringing. When she came to Montana, she brought it all with her. But, becoming a mom changed everything and healing became her full-time job. Now, she works with other women struggling with addiction and substance use disorder as a Peer Support Specialist at the YWCA.
