#299 - Kate DeAraugo - From Popstar Princess to Rock Bottom & Drug Addiction

Kate DeAraugo is the winner of the third season of Australian Idol & Member of Girl Group, "Young Divas". After reaching the heights of fame and success in the music industry, Kate went down a long and dark road which almost cost her life.

WARNING: This episode is very heavy, and some listeners may find elements distressing. Please listen with caution.

Wow, talk about a story.

Kate is about to share with you her wild journey in the music industry and her brutally honest battles with addiction.

Kate shares how alcohol addiction quickly turned into drug abuse and the dangerous road she went down.

We hear about the day she missed five flights due to sitting in a disabled toilet smoking meth, the drug encounter in a stranger's car and when she left a psych ward prematurely whilst her family begged her to stay.

Kate opens up about how addiction gets you, the rock bottom moment and so many people slide down the slippery slope. Plus, what she wishes she could teach all kids about the dangers of abuse and addiction.

On the brighter side, we talk Australian Idol memories, the craziest judge and life in the music industry. Plus, the incredible work she is doing now.

And most importantly, how Kate saved her own life and turned everything around.

Although this is heavy, this episode will fill you with hope about what life coming out the other end can look like.

We look forward to you enjoying the episode.
