Setting Boundaries with Love: Mastering Bottom Lines in Intervention

I love you too much to help you stay sick. That's what our bottom line is saying.
Ever felt stuck trying to help a loved one battling addiction? Jeff and Debra Jay have got your back with their insightful episode on using 'bottom lines' in interventions. Imagine this: you've gathered your intervention team, and you're ready to confront your loved one about their addiction. But what if they say no?
This episode dives into the crucial concept of 'bottom lines'—a strategy that involves asking yourself two key questions: 'What have I done to enable this addiction?' and 'What will I do to take care of myself if they refuse treatment?' By setting clear boundaries, you're not just helping the addict; you're also ensuring your own well-being. The Jays explain how many addicts rely on an enabling system, and when that support is removed, they're more likely to agree to treatment.
They share practical advice on how to prepare for objections, choose the right treatment provider, and handle the emotional rollercoaster of intervention day. Whether you're dealing with an impaired professional or a family member, this episode offers a compassionate yet firm approach to motivating change. Tune in to learn how love can be both tough and transformative.
