I want to give other people permission to be real and to honor when they messed up and to point out when someone's doing amazing things, and like to highlight, like you know, like that starfish story.
Imagine a life where every challenge feels like a wrestling match. That's the essence of Carly Israel's memoir, 'Seconds and Inches'. In this episode of 'New Books in Drugs, Addiction and Recovery', host Marshall Poe sits down with Carly to discuss her gripping journey through intergenerational trauma, personal growth, and the pursuit of grace and gratitude.

Her coaching program, In Your Corner, aims to help others shed fear and resentment, guiding them to become the parents they aspire to be. Carly's tale is one of inspiration and healing, urging us all to be real, acknowledge our mistakes, and focus on the good within ourselves and others.
