Matt Bair and Ryan Hedrick talk about why desire in recovery from addiction isn’t something you can measure or force and what that means for caregivers. They get into the struggles of supporting someone who might not always feel ready to change and why expecting constant motivation can lead to frustration.
Drawing from what they’ve learned in their own recovery, they talk about how to stay supportive without overstepping, handle your own expectations, and keep your relationship healthy while your loved one navigates the ups and downs. This episode is packed with practical advice and reassurance for anyone walking alongside someone in recovery.
