Loving Through Addiction: Heather Ross' Transformative Approach

Loving your child is never wrong. I know we get that messaging sometimes and we fear doing things that make us feel good for them.
Imagine believing that tough love is the only way to help your child through addiction, only to find out that love itself might be the most powerful tool you have. In this episode of 'Living With Your Child's Addiction', Heather Ross shares her personal journey and how a shift in her beliefs about love changed everything. Heather opens up about the outdated advice she followed, which often led to more conflict and heartache.
She reveals how embracing a compassionate and loving approach, rather than one rooted in fear and control, brought about real change in her relationship with her daughter. This episode isn't just about theories; it's filled with practical tips for parents who feel lost and powerless. Heather discusses how consistent boundaries, paired with unconditional love, can pave the way for healing and connection.
She challenges the notion that being tough is the only way to show you care, and instead, she offers a roadmap to creating a supportive environment where your child can thrive. Whether you're a parent at your wit's end or someone looking for a new perspective on addiction, this episode provides a fresh, hopeful approach. Tune in to discover how love can be your greatest ally in your child's recovery journey.
