IAM283- Recovery House Owner Finds Purpose in Helping Others Overcome Addiction

Summer Shine found her calling when she had just six months sober from a life long addiction to drugs and alcohol; a juice bar. Luna Juice Bar in Waco, TX had humble beginnings with low start up capitol and one employee.

Shine worked hard to turn her small business into a thriving food truck located at Magnolia Silo's, a hip storefront on Austin Ave and over half a million dollars in sale last year. She now employs women in the early stages of recovery.

In 2015, she and her husband, Ronnie started a recovery house for women in Waco and now serve between 25-30 women annually. Shine is the mother to her best friend and road dog, 21-year-old, Haigon.
