How I Met My Mother, Sober

S2 E21 - Women In Transition and Codependent Anonymous! (Season 2 Finale!)


Listen Later

In Season 2's Season Finale, we meet Dawn. Dawn is a liaison for Women In Transition and a faithful member of CoDa. (Codependents Anonymous) She tells us her experience with looking for resources through the courts and through the mental health system and finding none. She ultimately found help online through Women In Transition and CoDa. She tells us her story of finding CoDA, what it did for her. She tells us how she ultimately found Women In Transition and became a liaison for them. She now connects people from CoDa to WIT and vice versa. Her story is not unique and we hope this episode provides hope for anyone in a domestic violence situation and needs help or support in getting out. Please check out  Women In Transition and CoDa.
