This podcast is necessary because I knew really early on that one of the mistakes- and I don't mean that to beat myself up, but one of the things that I think contributed to Aaron dying is the denial that we wrap ourselves in as a protective blanket because we don't know what to do and it interferes right.
Ever wondered how a personal tragedy can spark a movement that saves lives? In this episode of the Boy Problems Podcast, hosts Katie, Jessica, and Shannon sit down with Justin Phillips, the remarkable Founder and Executive Director of Overdose Lifeline. After losing her son to an overdose, Justin turned her grief into action, creating an organization that provides crucial resources and education for families and medical professionals dealing with addiction.
This conversation is both heartfelt and informative, shedding light on the complexities of substance abuse disorder. Justin shares her journey from heartbreak to hope, discussing the genetic factors of addiction, the vital role of education and prevention, and the often-overlooked stigma that surrounds addiction. The hosts also dive into the CRAFT program, which offers families practical ways to support their loved ones in recovery.
This episode is a must-listen for anyone touched by addiction, offering not just information but a sense of community and understanding. Tune in to learn how Overdose Lifeline is making a difference and find out how you can get involved.
