Are you feeling overwhelmed by the pressures of parenting and looking for ways to stay balanced? Have you ever wondered if that glass of wine at the end of the day is helping or holding you back? In this episode of Power Your Parenting: Moms of Teens, host Colleen O'Grady dives into the topic of alcohol use among moms, the rise of addiction since COVID, and how recovery can reshape both personal and family dynamics. Joined by licensed addiction counselor and author Sarah Allen Benton, Colleen explores the nuanced challenges that moms in recovery face, from finding healthy ways to cope with stress to navigating the emotional toll that addiction can have on relationships with teens. Benton shares her personal experiences and insights on what it means to live a "recovery lifestyle," addressing the importance of emotional sobriety and how addiction can affect every area of life. Key insights include the importance of creating sustainable self-care practices that don't rely on substances. Benton emphasizes that managing stress as a parent often means saying “no” to additional commitments and removing the cultural expectation to do it all. This episode also highlights how families can support a parent in recovery, setting up boundaries that strengthen family bonds and empower teenagers to process any lingering anger or hurt. Benton stresses the need for open communication and suggests resources like support groups and counseling to help families rebuild trust and stability. Sarah Allen Benton is a licensed Advanced Alcohol and Drug Counselor, Addiction Counselor, and Mental Health Counselor. She has been a parent in recovery from alcoholism for more than 18 years.

If you're a high-achieving, busy mom juggling a demanding career, family, and all the other responsibilities life throws your way, you may feel like you've been holding it all together… but with a few drinks (or a bottle of wine) at the end of each day.  If you're used to being “on” all the time, there are a lot of hidden pressures that make giving up alcohol as your number one coping tool and “quick fix” for stress and connection difficult along the way.

In this especially important episode, we shine a spotlight on the harrowing issue of child sex trafficking and explore how we can support the young survivors of this modern-day slave trade. Join Lisa for a deeply insightful conversation with Alejandro (Alex) Castro Croy, a bilingual, bicultural Trauma and Addiction Counselor, and the owner/Lead Clinician of Transcending Consulting Group in Denver, Colorado. Alex brings his extensive experience from training law enforcement professionals and collaborating with the FBI on Crimes Against Children to the discussion. Together, they delve into the complexities of working with children who have endured compounded trauma and exploitation. Alex shares his journey into this challenging field and sheds light on the often-overlooked facets of child sex trafficking, including the surprising demographics it affects and the role of social media. Together they discuss the indicators of sex trafficking and key red flags to watch for. Alex also provides invaluable insights into the physical and behavioral signs that therapists should be aware of to help identify survivors. Learn why some clients might go AWOL or refuse treatment and how clinicians can approach these situations with sensitivity and care. Self-care for therapists is paramount, and Alex emphasizes the importance of mindfulness, debriefing, and the PERMS model—Physical, Emotional, Relational, Mental, and Spiritual domains of self-care—while sharing various intervention techniques and stressing the importance of honoring the human side of both therapist and client. This episode is a must-listen for therapists and anyone in the human services field. We encourage you to breathe and regulate as you listen to this important conversation, and as we navigate the challenging but essential work of supporting child survivors of sex trafficking. Talking Points: Understanding the true scope and demographics of child sex trafficking. The impact of social media and the daytime occurrences of trafficking. Recognizing indicators and key red flags. Identifying physical and behavioral signs of child sex trafficking survivors. The importance of self-care for clinicians and the PERMS model. Various therapeutic interventions: music, play, art, somatic, and narrative therapies. The importance of working with the client's protective strategies.

On a sidewalk littered with tarps, bicycles and discarded food containers, one tent sat farther away from the rest. It was clean, with the rain fly removed, showcasing the vacant interior."This is an empty tent erected by activists to encourage people to live in tents," Kevin Dahlgren said.Dahlgren's day job is reducing homelessness in the City of Gresham, but he spends most of his free time talking to those who live on the streets of Portland. He often posts videos of his conversations on Twitter, hoping to shed light on the West Coast's "dysfunctional system" for addressing homelessness.During his 27 years in social services, Dahlgren said he's seen a shift from permanent solutions to Band-Aid approaches."When you're not actually helping the permanent solutions, the old homeless stay there and the new homeless come in and everything just grows," he said.Oregon has one of the highest rates of homelessness in the nation. An estimated 17,959 people were homeless in the state during the nationwide count last year, 11,000 of whom were unsheltered, according to the Department of Housing and Urban Development.The state — and its largest city — have struggled to reverse the trend.Support the showSign Up For Exclusive Episodes At: https://reasonabletv.com/LIKE & SUBSCRIBE for new videos every day. https://www.youtube.com/c/NewsForReasonablePeople

We all know exercise is a powerful depression fighter for several reasons. Most importantly, it promotes all kinds of changes in the brain, including neural growth, and new activity patterns that promote feelings of calm and well-being. It also releases endorphins, powerful chemicals in your brain that energize your spirits and make you feel good. Finally, exercise can also serve as a distraction, allowing you to find some quiet time to break out of the cycle of negative thoughts that feed depression and addiction.  Exercise can be a valuable medicine in the treatment of substance use disorders.
