I think it still kind of impacts me today in some of the relationships that I build, and I haven't thought about that in a long time, but it just helps me remember, I guess, how much our kids keep from us and how important our role is as parents to make sure that our kids feel safe and heard.
Ever wondered how someone can turn their life around after years of battling addiction? In this episode of 'Beyond Hope', Shar Jones sits down with James Hamilton Healy, a man who has faced the darkest corners of addiction and emerged stronger. James opens up about his early teenage years when drugs and alcohol began to control his life, leading to poor decisions and strained relationships. But his story doesn't end there.
Despite lacking health insurance and financial resources, James was determined to find a way out. He discovered a sober living house that emphasized fitness and health, which became a cornerstone in his recovery journey. James also shares how his love for the outdoors became a therapeutic escape and a tool for helping others. Now a recovery coach, he talks about the importance of feeling safe and heard in relationships, and how his childhood experiences shaped his adult interactions.
Parenting a child with addiction added another layer of complexity, but James found strength in accountability and community support. His journey is a testament to the power of resilience and the belief that everyone can find their unique path to recovery. Tune in to hear James' inspiring story and perhaps find a spark of hope for your own journey.
