Adriene’s story moves from a childhood of instability and abuse to the discovery of hope through books, teachers, and unexpected kindness. A spelling bee, a near-adoption, and an exchange year in Germany become lifelines that change her sense of belonging.
Adulthood brings its own trials—addiction, loss, and rebuilding from rock bottom. On November 8, 2005, she chose sobriety and motherhood, rewriting her story one small step at a time.
Now, financial advisor Adriene Caldwell is also the author of Unbroken: Life Outside the Lines. Adrian offers her hard-won wisdom to anyone still walking through the dark. She lives in Houston, Texas, with her husband and spirited 20-year-old daughter, who is currently attending university. Through her work, she shares the message that no matter how broken life may feel, we all carry the strength to heal and live Unbroken.
This episode is for anyone who needs proof that small choices can build a new life, and that hope can start anywhere.
Let's enjoy her story.
