Description: Are you a Mother of an addict who is struggling within their recovery? Are you finding it one of your biggest parenting challenges ever? You're not alone. So many parents are unfortunately put into a position of feeling like a failure when their kids succumb to addiction. Shame, guilt and so many other conflicting emotions can cause huge family challenges and strife. My guest today, coach and author Sandy Sherman, has worked through so many of these issues within her own family and has recently written a book to help other parents maintain their sanity and relationship health when dealing with their addicted children. She gives her clients keys to manage their lives with an addicted kid by effectively implementing essential action steps, including exercises to instill clear thoughts and effective decision making. By understanding that the addicted child is someone you can't control, she structures a radical and unconventional way of recovery for the parent by helping them take their power and their life back. With forgiveness being a key component to moving forward with love and understanding. Look for book, "Stronger: An Addict's Mom's Guide to Peace," on Amazon and also join her Facebook Group, "Mom's in New Recovery."

I check in with innovative experts and individuals in the recovery industry, related fields or just “regular folks” who have had some incredible experiences so we can hear directly from them what is working today for addicts in recovery, for their families and their friends. I also want this to be a learning tool for professionals in the recovery field, a place where ideas can be nurtured and spread, where networking and education can help addiction treatment become more effective all the time. It's estimated that 53 million American's are touched by addiction. It is rare if you have not been personally affected by this disease. So, even if you are not the addict, maybe it's your son or daughter, or Mom or Dad, or sister, brother, cousin, uncle, aunt, co-worker, boss, neighbor, whoever. This disease is impacting you somehow, making your life a little less than what you would like it to be if you could wave a magic wand and create your dream world. I want these cutting edge ideas to be available to those who need help, those who often cannot afford to access the professional help they need. My mission here is to do so much good for the recovery community that I have a positive effect on addiction. I want to help hundreds, if not thousands of addicts (maybe millions someday) to be healthy, sober and free, really enjoying their life in sobriety. Thanks for listening! James Healy
