Balancing Joy and Pain: Can Parents Find Happiness Amidst Their Child's Addiction?

But I also believe it's really important for you to give yourself permission to be as happy as the happiest person you know, even if it's just temporary.
Picture this: your child is grappling with addiction, and every day feels like a storm you can't escape. Brenda Zane, host of 'Hopestream', knows this reality all too well. In this episode, she tackles a question many parents in this situation wrestle with - can you find happiness while your child battles addiction? Brenda, a Mayo Clinic Certified health & wellness coach and CRAFT Parent Coach, shares her personal journey and professional insights on navigating these turbulent times.
She offers three key considerations for parents who haven't felt genuine joy in a long time, who don't recognize their own lives anymore, and who feel guilty for wanting moments of peace. Brenda's candid reflections and practical advice provide a lifeline for parents seeking a semblance of normalcy and happiness amidst the chaos. This episode is a heartfelt guide for anyone looking to reclaim some joy while supporting a child through addiction.
