Podcast #30 — The Most Overlooked Resource: Friends & Family Members

Has anyone ever said to you, “There is nothing you can do or say that will change things"? Did it make you feel hopeless? powerless? We may be powerless over the disease but we can influence our Loved Ones. This has been studied and proven with CRAFT. Have you ever noticed it's often the same people who warn against enabling and yet try to convince you you're powerless? Isn't this a bit contradictory? In this episode, Annie & Laurie discuss the role of parents-spouses-friends—the most loving and caring people in the Loved One’s life, and the most likely to champion their success in recovery and treatment.
