Toni Gierhart

Toni Gierhart has spent many years walking the path of sobriety. She gained her sobriety 15 years ago after losing her children, in part, because of her active addiction. Her current favorite drink is Sweet Tea and her favorite porch to hang out on is her Step-mom’s. Toni embodies her favorite quote by Christopher Reeves, “Once you choose hope, anything is possible.”
Toni has used much of her time since becoming sober supporting those who are in recovery, both by operating recovery homes and by sharing her story of love and hope. Toni is currently living in Colorado Springs, with her husband, son and granddaughter. She is a Trucking Manager and manages a fleet of semi-trucks and drivers. She is reading “13 Things Mentally Strong People Don’t Do”. She frequently say that “if its’ not good, it’s not over” and will always be known by her determination and love of helping others. Plus she’s just a lot of fun to hang out with!
