Finding Balance: Managing Life and Conversations Amidst Chaos with Brenda Zane

Allow yourself time to grieve and time to feel the pain of your situation. Carve out that time to feel your feelings instead of trying to make them go away or stuff them down until they don't have anywhere to go but an explosion.
Ever felt like your world is crumbling while everyone else seems to have 'normal' problems? Brenda Zane knows that feeling all too well. In this episode of 'Hopestream', she tackles the tricky terrain of maintaining relationships and managing conversations when you're dealing with the life-threatening disease of addiction in your family. Brenda, a Mayo Clinic Certified health & wellness coach and CRAFT Parent Coach, offers practical advice for those grappling with the immense stress of supporting a child through addiction.
She shares heartfelt tips on how to handle grief without falling apart, the emotional toll of alcohol, and finding moments of gratitude even in the darkest times. Brenda also provides specific phrases you can use with well-meaning but sometimes clueless friends and family to help them understand your reality. Whether you're a parent in the thick of it or someone wanting to support a loved one going through this, this episode is a must-listen.
You'll walk away with new perspectives, practical tools, and a sense of community from the Hopestream tribe.
