Episode Overview
- Casey discusses his struggle with maladaptive behaviours, addiction whack-a-mole, and issues around money
- The children's book 'Mommy's Getting Sober' includes a caregiver's guide for facilitating open, honest conversations about addiction
- The book conveys a journey into hope and optimism through illustrations
- Casey's dedication to recovery and breaking generational patterns makes for an inspiring and transformative story
- The book is already impacting not only children but also adult children of alcoholics and other adults who grew up around addiction
My hope again, especially with the caregiver's guide in the back or the main portion of this book, being able to hopefully give a voice for kids is there's an opportunity to catch it earlier and earlier and earlier without waiting.
Ever wondered how to talk to kids about addiction? In this episode of 'The Way Out', Charlie and Jason sit down with Casey Arrillaga, a licensed clinical social worker, chemical dependency counselor, and author who's walked the path of long-term recovery. Casey dives deep into his personal battle with addiction, sharing how he transformed his life from one of struggle to one of purpose and empathy.
His latest book, 'Mommy's Getting Sober', is a children's picture book that includes a caregiver's guide, aiming to foster open, honest conversations about addiction within families. Casey's unique approach helps bridge the gap between a child's and a caregiver's experiences, creating a shared understanding that can disrupt harmful generational cycles. Through heartfelt anecdotes and professional insights, Casey offers valuable tools for families navigating the complexities of recovery.
This episode is a must-listen for anyone looking to find hope, healing, and practical advice on breaking free from the shadows of addiction.
