My dad is celebrating 15 years of sobriety. As a special edition Father’s Day episode, Nadia interviews her father, Jim, about his journey from addiction to recovery.

Some of the most important work we do on this plane is healing and drawing more awareness and compassion into our family lines. Perhaps my dad’s biggest work in this lifetime is interrupting a generational pattern of drinking.

Content warning: if you or someone in your life has or is currently experiencing substance abuse and this topic is activating for you, please trust your body about whether or not to listen.

Additionally, this episode contains my dad’s personal experience with substance abuse and does not contain professional mental health or medical advice. Please consult with a trained professional if you or someone you know is experiencing addiction.

Finally, my dad has generously offered his time to anyone who listens to this episode and feels called to connect. You can email Nadia at [email protected] to get in touch with Jim.

Thank you for listening to this tender episode and sharing your hearts with us through the ethers. I hope this episode inspires your own familial healing through gently examining patterns of familial dysfunction and secrecy with loving awareness.
