We all want our loved ones to get sober and stay that way. But here’s the truth: it’s not your job to carry them there.

You're exhausted.

Your heart is tired from hoping.

Your brain won’t stop spinning—thinking, overthinking.

Maybe you feel like if you just love them harder… support them better… say the right thing… they'll finally turn the corner.

This episode explores:
