Addiction – It's Personal

In this episode, Jeff discusses: · Why he is doing what he is doing · Stories of his grandfather's addiction trickling down to his mother's trauma/coping and then realizing his own · The 4 recurring themes: Positive Regard, Secrets, The Gift is the Wound/The Wound is the Gift, & Curiosity · These themes will impact the questions and conversations in the podcast

Key Takeaways: · Addiction may not seem chaotic, but will always have an impact · The impact from addiction manifests as different strategies or survival roles in the family · Each role is a strategy to cope with what's going on around them, the impact to their own nervous system, compensate for the addiction and stay connected as a family · Recognizing your own coping and learning new skills is how individuals and families make change

"What this podcast is about is about shining light on family challenges and the strengths they have to become a stronger part of the solution for addiction in their own family, but also together, building social capital and, ideally being able to make change in the statistics with addiction today."— Jeff Jones
