Pamela Cooper has lived more life in her early 20s than most people could imagine
 
After experiencing the devastating death of her child, Pamela found herself battling grief, mental health struggles, addiction, and a version of herself she no longer recognized
 
But her story didn't end there
 
She fought her way forward through sobriety, a dramatic weight loss and fitness journey, motherhood, and finding connection with people who reminded her she didn't have to do life alone
 
Our paths crossed through the Sober Girls Group Chat, Redemption Weekend, and the 100th episode of the I Am Redemption Podcast, where Pamela stood up during the live show and asked a question that turned into a moment that reached far beyond that room
 
Since then, she hasn't just been around I Am Redemption, she's shown up
 
She's volunteered alongside us, brought her family, joined our runs, and continued becoming someone who uses what she's survived to help others
 
Pamela's story is about grief, addiction, mental health, sobriety, motherhood, fitness, weight loss, and what can happen when we give our pain a purpose
