Is your relationship breaking under the weight of your child’s addiction? Discover how to stay united when everything is pulling you apart.
Addiction doesn’t just affect the person using—it shakes the entire family, often turning parents into emotional opponents. When one wants to fix and the other wants to avoid, communication breaks down and your relationship can suffer. This episode offers a guide to rebuilding unity, even in crisis.
- Understand the common parenting roles—like fixer vs. avoider—and how they create friction during addiction struggles.
- Learn practical ways to reconnect with your partner through calm communication, shared values, and boundaries.
- Discover how couples counseling, education, and emotional honesty can strengthen your relationship and help you support your loved one more effectively.
Tune in now to learn how to heal together, support each other, and stay strong as a team—because your connection matters just as much as your child’s recovery.
