Parenting and Addiction: A Candid Talk with Willow Finch

This is just how I changed, as a dad, from someone that was impatient, mean and angry and just irritated and not pleasant to be around, to very loving, tolerant, compassionate and much sweeter and much more conscious and present.
How do you talk to your kids about addiction? In this episode of Elevation Recovery, Matt Finch sits down with his 10-year-old daughter, Willow, for a heartfelt conversation on the importance of addiction education and youth prevention. Matt, who has lived through addiction and recovery, shares his insights on why early education is key to preventing substance abuse. Willow chimes in with her own experiences dealing with peer pressure and the role technology plays in today's youth drug use.
This episode isn't just for parents; it's for anyone who cares about the next generation. Matt also opens up about the challenges of parenting while struggling with addiction and how recovery has changed his relationship with his daughter. The duo discusses practical strategies for prevention and the power of open communication. Tune in for an eye-opening chat that offers both wisdom and warmth.
