Thank you for listening!

Overview:

Welcome to the Addiction Support Podcast!  This week, my dear friend shares her story of having an alcoholic father.  Then being raised by a single mother of 3 in a new country.  No family to support them.

She had her first drink at age 13 – was able to recover, then turned back to alcohol as an adult.

Today she is celebrating and embracing her recovery while helping others do the same!

Discover tips and tricks on how we can keep ourselves healthy when we are in a relationship with an addict. You can also hear from holistic health and wellness professionals that share insight into keeping yourself well. Although Melissa confesses she does not have it all figured out, through the help of seminars, life coaches, and wellness professionals she has been able to work through her feelings of sadness, guilt, and shame associated with having two younger brothers struggle with drug addiction. After one brother passed away, she decided that his death would not be in vain. Only recently after watching Johann Hari's Ted Talk: Everything You Know About Addiction is Wrong did she decided to take action by focusing on inspiring hope and change by providing love and support to friends and family members of addicts. “Be the change you wish to see in the world” - Gandhi
