If you have addicts and alcoholics in your life, you need to learn how to detach. If you don't, you may find yourself trying to force them to get sober and losing yourself in the process.

You may find yourself feeling afraid and angry and wondering why you are not capable of convincing the person you care about to make better choices. If this sounds like you, watch this video to learn how to detach from the addicts and alcoholics in your life. #detachment  #detaching #dysfunctionalrelationship #addictionstruggles    Website: https://www.changemyrelationship.com/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ChangeMyRelationship YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@changemyrelationship Watch this video on YouTube: https://youtu.be/9WYTfD8ZNCc

In this episode of the Sharing Without Shame podcast, host Donna Marston sits down with Barb Nangle, a former people-pleaser turned boundaries coach, who shares her deeply personal journey from codependency to empowerment. Barb opens up about a pivotal moment in her life when helping a homeless friend led her to hit a codependent bottom, ultimately guiding her into the world of recovery through Codependents Anonymous (CODA) and later Adult Children of Alcoholics and Dysfunctional Families (ACA). She describes the transformative impact of understanding codependency and relational trauma, and how discovering the concept of “reparenting” changed her life.As a podcast host herself, Barb brings heartfelt insight and wisdom, especially for those who find themselves over-giving, rescuing, or enabling loved ones—often under the guise of care. She unpacks the difference between healthy helping and unhealthy rescuing, shares tools for self-care, and explains how boundaries rooted in personal values can lead to emotional freedom. Whether you're a parent of someone in active addiction or someone struggling with boundaries, Barb's story offers a compassionate yet practical roadmap to healing and wholeness.Links:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/higherpowercoaching/Website: https://higherpowercc.com/Sponsors: Experience Inner Peace with Calming Therapy BraceletsWebsite: ⁠https://snappbandz.com/Use SWOS or SharingWithoutShame code Thank you for tuning in!

Quick question: how many brain cells would you happily trade for a glass of Sauvignon Blanc? Most of us would answer “none,” yet that is the quiet swap that takes place each time we drink. For decades, alcohol marketing painted scenes of witty toasts and genius writers crafting best-sellers with a tumbler by the keyboard. Reality tells a duller truth: MRI scanners now show measurable shrinkage of the brain in people who average one drink a day. Cognitive tests confirm slower learning and patchy recall.Ready to quit drinking? Imagine, no more hangovers!

Send us a textWhat if you could break free from lifelong patterns of codependence and transform your life through the power of boundaries? In this episode of Lift One Self, we sit down with Barb Nangle, a remarkable boundaries coach who turned her life around through 12-step recovery programs. Barb opens up about her journey through Codependence Anonymous and Adult Children of Alcoholics and Dysfunctional Families, revealing how she reparented herself and healed from trauma. Her inspiring story of shedding over 100 pounds by embracing healthy boundaries showcases the profound impact of self-care and community support on personal growth and professional transformation.Our conversation takes a deeper dive into the practices that have anchored Barb's healing journey, such as meditation, play, and emotional processing. By drawing from Internal Family Systems theory, Barb illustrates how techniques like yelling into a pillow can release pent-up feelings and lead to authentic emotional expression. The episode unravels the intricacies of people-pleasing behaviors and the significance of setting boundaries aligned with personal values. Through Barb's candid reflections, we explore how shifting from a need for external validation to cultivating internal safety has reshaped her life and relationships, including finding her first healthy romantic relationship in her 50s.We conclude by emphasizing the importance of spreading the message of self-care and emotional healing. Barb encourages listeners to share these transformative insights with those who might benefit and to practice kindness and gentleness toward themselves. As Barb's story illustrates, addressing small, present-moment emotions can unravel deeper layers of healing over time.

She also gives advice on how to stop enabling and start helping loved ones who suffer with alcoholism. Janet Geringer Woititz passed away at her home in Roseland, New Jersey, in 1994.

We discuss the value of family members getting involved in a 12-step program and the role of Adult Children of Alcoholics (ACA) in helping families heal. Can working the 12 steps repeatedly continue to provide value, or is there a point where the returns diminish? We explore whether it makes sense to keep revisiting the steps and how they can evolve over time depending on where you are in your recovery journey. This is a thought-provoking conversation for anyone curious about maximizing the impact of the 12 steps while keeping recovery balanced and meaningful. Tune in to get some clarity and perspective!
