The worst thing that you can do as a spouse- spouses are guilty of this as a loved one, aunts, uncles, brothers, sisters. As a parent, mom, dad- the worst thing that you can do is get involved in that battle for them.
Ever felt the urge to step in and solve all your loved one's problems during their recovery journey? In this episode of Real Recovery Talk, Tom Conrad tackles a topic that many find challenging: why it's crucial to let those in recovery face their own struggles. Tom, a seasoned recovery advocate, shares his insights on how over-helping can actually impede progress.

Instead, Tom suggests focusing on healthy confrontation strategies that encourage personal responsibility and critical thinking. This episode is a must-listen for anyone supporting a loved one through recovery, offering practical advice on how to strike the right balance between being supportive and allowing space for growth.
