EP 405: Catching Up With Samantha Brantley-Smith
Samantha Brantley Smith is a woman in long-term recovery, community leader, and advocate from rural East Tennessee. After overcoming addiction and rebuilding her life from the ground up, she now dedicates her work to helping others find hope, healing, and accountability. Samantha serves in multiple recovery and prevention roles within her community, including Recovery Court coordination, peer support leadership, and substance misuse prevention initiatives.
Known for her honest “front porch” approach and bold conversations, Samantha speaks openly about redemption, resilience, faith, family, and the realities of recovery in small-town America. Her passion is helping people understand that a past does not define a person’s future.
Today, she is a wife, mother, grandmother, advocate, and voice for second chances — using her story to help others believe change is possible.
