The Embrace Family Recovery Podcast
Health & Fitness:Mental Health
What is a Sponsor? Do I Need One? I'm Not Good At Asking For Help.
Sponsorship is a tool that is invaluable for any recovery program. Sadly people on the family side of this disease often do not afford themselves this gift.
A person asked on my Facebook Page, Embrace Family Program, how do I get a sponsor?
They inspired the idea for this podcast!
While working at Hazelden Betty Ford with clients seeking recovery from a substance use disorder, many parents and partners struggled to engage in their recovery. They were so focused on their addict's program. I understand this struggle, and I hope this podcast helps you consider how beneficial having a sponsor would be moving forward.
Sandy Swenson says it best:
"The hardest thing I have ever done is to acknowledge that I can't control my son's addiction recovery. But maybe the most important thing I've ever done is to let recovery begin with me".
Let your recovery begin with you!
