Joshua C. Andrus: Tackling Addiction and Mental Health with Children's Stories

The beauty of children's stories is that they allow us to address difficult issues like addiction and mental health in an approachable way.
What if children's stories could be a tool for addressing tough topics like addiction and mental health? In this episode of 'Friends in Recovery', addiction therapist and author Joshua C. Andrus joins the conversation to share how his series of children's books opens up these challenging discussions. With over 14 years of experience, Joshua brings a unique perspective on why it's crucial to start these conversations early.
He dives into his own journey with addiction, reflecting on how the Al-Anon program helped him navigate relationships strained by addiction. The episode also explores the impact of COVID-19 on mental health and addiction, and the role of technology in recovery. Joshua's insights make this episode a must-listen for anyone looking to understand addiction from a fresh angle.
Tune in for an enlightening discussion that blends personal stories with practical advice, all wrapped up in a format that's accessible even for the youngest minds.
