We have this thing in us that we turn to others for support, to others for comfort that we can receive. That just makes us feel safe, makes us feel secure, makes us find some inner strength.

In this episode of A2D - From Addict to Disciple, David Hain dives into the idea of 'safe havens' and why they're crucial for anyone on the path to recovery. Kicking off with some thought-provoking lyrics from the Rolling Stones' 'Mother's Little Helper', David sets the stage for a deep discussion on finding your sanctuary.
