Seeing your children suffer is one of the most painful experiences you can go through as a parent. And when you have a child who is battling substance abuse issues, knowing how to intervene can be a harrowing process fraught with shame, guilt, and isolation. Joining us today to generously share their experiences are the Moms With Hair On Fire (MWHOF), a group of moms supporting not only their children, who are going through addiction but also one another. We talk with them about their experience navigating this difficult process before reflecting on the profound role that finding community has played in their children’s recovery, as well as their own healing journeys. Our conversation also delves into the shame and stigma surrounding these issues, how silence and isolation hamper the recovery process, and why sharing these types of stories is the only way to address the prejudices surrounding addiction. To learn more about their journeys, along with resources and advice to parents who suspect their children may be struggling with substance abuse, tune in for this important conversation.
