People with addiction have an illness that is destroying their life physically, emotionally and spiritually. Help them find some strategies and tools to recover with grace and dignity.
Margaret Swift Thompson, with over two decades of experience in chemical dependency counseling, takes the mic solo in this episode of 'The Embrace Family Recovery Podcast'. She dives deep into the often-overlooked struggles faced by families of those battling addiction. Margaret discusses how denial, isolation, and increased tolerance are not just challenges for those addicted but also for their loved ones. Through her observations, she highlights the glaring lack of support services for families dealing with addiction.
This gap led her to create Embrace Family Recovery LLC, aiming to provide coaching and support for those navigating these turbulent waters. Margaret passionately believes that modeling recovery out loud is far more effective than trying to dictate an addict's actions. She shares practical strategies to establish boundaries and build a healthy support network, offering a message of hope and resilience.
If you love someone with addiction and feel overwhelmed, this episode is a comforting reminder that you are not alone and that recovery is possible for the whole family.
