Ever feel like you're running in circles trying to help your child through addiction? In this episode of 'Moms Letting Go Without Giving Up', host Michelle Weidenbenner dives into the often overlooked concept of 'blind spots'.

She suggests seeking out perspectives from others who have walked a similar path, as they can shine a light on patterns we might miss. But it doesn't stop there. Michelle talks about the power of taking responsibility and moving beyond the blame game.
As she puts it, 'We can find forgiveness in ourselves and move on in order to heal, but first we have to look in the mirror and take responsibility'. This episode is packed with practical advice and heartfelt insights, making it a must-listen for any mom feeling overwhelmed by their child's addiction. Tune in and discover how self-reflection and growth can not only help you but also support your loved one.
