Ever wondered how addiction impacts not just the individual but the entire family? In this episode of the Sober Grind Podcast, the host and guest take a deep dive into the intricate web of family roles that emerge when substance abuse is involved.

The hosts emphasize the importance of therapy in recognizing and addressing these roles and highlight how community support can be a game-changer in the recovery journey.
