Fresh Start: Friends in Recovery Podcast Kicks Off Season 2

The goal is, you know, we get this family system that over The Years has become, you know, sick with their loved one... so that everybody could get well.
Get ready for a fresh start with the Friends in Recovery Podcast as it kicks off Season 2 in a brand-new studio! Hosts Mike Miles, also known as The Podfather, and Jersey Ed (Ed Chionchio Sr) are back, and they're bringing along a new producer, the well-known Sweets. Sweets isn't just any producer; he's a person in recovery and a professional family interventionist with a love for cigars and podcasting.
It's a lively introduction to the new season with plenty of warm welcomes and exciting updates. The episode isn't just about new beginnings; it dives deep into a crucial topic: enabling. Ever wondered if your actions are helping or hurting your loved one in recovery? Mike and Ed break down what enabling looks like and discuss whether it can ever be beneficial. They reference the book 'Loving Lions' as a valuable resource for understanding addiction within the family context.
A special shout-out goes to Brian C. from Texas, who began his recovery journey on August 17, 2017. His story is a reminder that time and patience are key in the path to sobriety. Throughout the episode, the hosts emphasize the importance of family support in recovery. They suggest shifting focus from enabling to empowering loved ones, advocating for sharing recovery stories, and taking it one day at a time.
They also highlight Al-Anon as a fantastic resource for families dealing with addiction. Join Mike and Ed for an engaging and heartfelt discussion that underscores the power of community and family in the recovery process. Whether you're in recovery yourself or supporting someone who is, this episode offers valuable insights and encouragement.
