Family Ties: Confronting Addiction Together with Suzy and Robert

Living with things that I learned in the program, like radical acceptance, I mean in other words, part of what I've grown into in this program- is realizing that the moment I am presented with a circumstance or an awareness, or, like my mom's breast cancer diagnosis, the moment I'm presented with that, I have a choice.
Ever wondered how addiction affects not just the individual but the entire family? In this episode of The Recovery Guy Podcast, Robert Pardon sits down with co-dependency expert Suzy to unpack the idea that addiction is truly a family disease. Suzy shares her heartfelt story of navigating through the tumultuous waters of addiction as a family member, offering a raw and honest look at her journey to recovery through Al-Anon.
She emphasizes the critical need for family members to seek their own paths to healing, regardless of whether the addict in their life chooses to recover. One of the standout messages from this episode is the importance of taking ownership of one's role in the recovery process. Without this ownership, true healing remains out of reach. Suzy also highlights the transformative power of radical acceptance and living authentically.
Through her experiences, she shows that embracing these principles can lead to a life filled with joy and freedom, even amidst the struggles of addiction. If you or someone you care about is grappling with addiction, this episode offers valuable insights and practical advice on finding hope and healing. Tune in for a conversation that underscores the importance of family support in the journey to recovery.
