Gloria Englund's Self-Care Secrets: Navigating Grief and Addiction

I had a passion for grief before I ever got into the field of addiction, and I think it's because I have been drawn to working with parts of our society that are either stigmatized, judged, uncomfortable for people.
Ever wondered how to maintain your energy and passion while dealing with the heavy weight of grief? In this heartfelt episode, Margaret Swift Thompson sits down with Gloria Englund, the insightful author of 'Living in the Wake of Addiction'. Gloria opens up about her personal journey, sharing how she manages to care for herself while supporting others through their battles with addiction. She offers seven practical self-care tips that have helped her navigate this challenging landscape.
But that's not all – Gloria also reads an excerpt from her book, giving listeners a glimpse into her profound experiences. This episode is a treasure trove of wisdom for anyone grappling with the complexities of loving someone with an addiction. From accepting addiction as an illness to setting boundaries and understanding the role of medication-assisted treatment, Gloria's insights are both refreshing and deeply human. Tune in for a conversation that's as enlightening as it is comforting.
