We’re kicking off the 5th season of the Embrace Family Recovery Podcast with an incredible conversation featuring Linda and Stephen from the documentary feature film 'Our American Family.'
This radically honest portrait dives deep into the generational impact of addiction and the strength it takes to heal as a family.
Linda, born into addiction, shares her powerful story of resilience, while Stephen opens up about navigating the disease within their family system. Don’t miss this moving episode with the courageous matriarch of this family and her youngest son. 💙
