This shift not only helps parents cope better but also positively impacts their children. Her experiences offer hope and resilience to those navigating similar paths.
If you're seeking a compassionate approach to support your child while also growing as an individual, this episode provides valuable perspectives and practical advice. Tune in to learn how conscious bravery can transform your family's journey through addiction.
