The Essential Ingredient — Why Consequences Are the Most Loving Thing You Can Do

Description:

What if the most loving thing you could do for your addicted loved one… is let them feel pain?

In this powerful episode, Jason Coombs opens Chapter 4 of The Brick House Way and pulls no punches: without consequences, there is no change. Families often believe love means rescuing, softening the blow, or giving one more chance. But those well-meaning instincts? They may be keeping your loved one sick.

Inside this episode:

• Jason’s personal story of hitting bottom—prison, homelessness, and losing everything
• Why “change happens at the speed of pain”
• The Get Off the Beach metaphor that changed everything for his parents
• How rescuing rewires the brain to expect escape instead of growth
• Why boundaries aren’t punishment—they’re protection
• Simple boundary examples families can set today

Whether you’re a parent, spouse, or friend, this episode will challenge you to rethink what real love looks like in the face of addiction. Because sometimes love sounds like:

“I won’t stop you from facing the weight of your choices… but I’ll still be here when you’re ready to rise.”
