Grief is something you can’t avoid. It comes in all shapes and sizes. Sometimes we grieve because we could not save someone no matter how hard we tried. Today we are talking about loss due to addiction. I read that something like 46 million Americans struggle with addiction, but many don’t get the treatment they need. Maybe they don’t realize they need help. Maybe they aren’t sure where to start or think they cannot afford it. Or maybe they have tried. Our guest shares her story of losing her husband to addiction and the grief that followed.

The Lucy to your Ethel. Abbott to your Costello. Thelma to your Louise. Damon to your Affleck. Snoop Dog to your Martha Stewart. Best friends are a wonderful thing. They really know you and love you anyway. But what happens when you drift apart and lose that friendship. Today we will hear from a friend of mine that went through a friend loss. Not because they died but because they grew apart. Not all grief is death related but can hurt very much.

Richard and his best friend started off strong but as life took them on different journeys they grew apart. He joins us today to share his story.

Then you think ok maybe I am overthinking this. Just be cool. Then it actually happens.  Join our guests as we talk about all the feelings that go with losing your job.
