“You can't sit motionless for 30 minutes without learning something, and when that happens day after day, we learn and we learn. Like it or not, we learn.” - Heather Ross Heather opens up the Pandora's Box of zazen and takes a hard and healing look at the hidden aspects of ourselves that inevitably unhide themselves through regular sitting. How do we cope when we start to see through our own coping mechanisms? What do we do in the messy middle when we start seeing our mistakes all too clearly, but before we've learned how not to make them? How are we supposed take personal responsibility for the faults of others without making it all about us??

In Ep 123 we put forward some questions that Brené Brown offered us that I had to research. She called it Wholehearted adult play. And I was really struck by this: Play? Do I play? Do I play enough? What is play anyway? I was kind of terrified I wasn't fun or playing in my life! So I found there's an actual National Institute for Play (NIFP) which is a non-profit public benefit corporation dedicated to advancing society's understanding and application of play — a long-ignored biological capability that can lead to healthier, happier lives. I also think that the best bosses I ever had were very playful. One of them was so good at it, she did a side gig as a stand-up comic and was quite good! Corporate life gave her lots of great material.

Today on the podcast I speak with Coach, Heather Ross. I know you will enjoy this conversation as much as I enjoyed creating it for you. Please find Heather at: https://heatherrosscoaching.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/heatherrosscoaching/ FaceBook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/434135437166166/?ref=share Heather Ross is the mother of a child who struggled with addiction, a Certified Parent Support Coach, Invitation to Change Certified, CRAFT trained, and the host of the popular podcast called Living with Your Child's Addiction. Heather tried all the approaches the professionals recommended even though they didn't feel right to her. She tried tough love, waiting for her daughter to hit rock bottom, and other traditional approaches that are confrontational and based on stigma rather than science. Those approaches caused chaos in her home, intense stress for the whole family, and destroyed her relationship with her daughter. Feeling desperate and defeated, Heather stopped everything that wasn't working and tried something completely different. The new approaches that she learned from coaching and CRAFT empowered her to support her daughter based on her values as a mother. She brought unconditional love, stability, and emotional health to her relationship with her daughter. Heather educated herself about substance use disorder, started focusing on self-care, learned how to set boundaries and allow natural consequences, and started using positive communication skills. The changes she made not only repaired but strengthened her relationship with her daughter. It also created space for her daughter to seek treatment and start her own recovery journey. The recovery path is not a straight line though. It can be filled with many challenging twists and turns. Tragically, Heather's daughter had a reoccurrence of use and was given a deadly dose of fentanyl. After the devastating loss of her daughter, Heather called on her tools and resilience to lean into helping more parents and using science-backed education to change the stigma around substance use. She's grateful that she worked hard on herself, learned how to support her daughter, and created a beautiful loving relationship with her. Heather has a 1:1 coaching program for parents that is family centered, based on science, and works during recovery or active substance use. She believes that parents have more power than they realize and the best gift they can give their child is a healthy parent.

Imagine a world where radical honesty is not just a virtue, but a way of life. That's precisely the world we're diving into during our enlightening conversation, unpacking thought-provoking themes from "The Voice of Knowledge" by Don Miguel Ruiz, and "Love People Use Things" by Joshua Fields Milburn and Ryan Nicodemus. As we explore how various religions interpret the tree of life and the tree of knowledge, we delve into radical responsibility, the evolution of humanity towards love, and the need to question truths that no longer serve us. From the evolution of space exploration to the changing truths about our planet, we reveal how knowledge is a fluid, evolving entity.Relationships can be a minefield or a playground, depending on how you navigate them. Our conversation takes a poignant look at the fragility and strength of relationships, the blessings and curses of authenticity, and the profound impact of our narratives on our lives. We discuss the delicate balance between love and pain, the pitfalls of codependency, and the significance of decision-making. We also encourage you to model honesty, not just for yourself but for those who look up to you. It's not just about telling the truth; it's about living it.Finally, we invite you to engage in a thought experiment - list your 10 most valuable possessions and experiences.

Are you ready to shatter the chains of untruths that have held you captive? With insights from Don Miguel Ruiz's enlightening work, "The Voice and Knowledge," we embark on a journey that unveils the shocking reality of knowledge contamination by lies, and how we can cleanse ourselves from this tainted wisdom.

This podcast episode is a conversation with Heather Ross, host of the popular Living With Your Child's Addiction podcast, trained in CRAFT, and certified ITC parent coach. We discuss how CRAFT (community reinforcement and family training) and Invitation to Change models support your loved one (and yourself) struggling with substance use disorder. The CRAFT (Community Reinforcement and Family Training) program is a non-confrontational, evidence-based intervention for helping families affected by addiction. It helps individuals develop effective strategies for helping a loved one struggling with substance use disorder seek treatment and cope.The invitation to Change program is based on an approach by the Center for Motivation and Change that combines the evidence-based protocol of Community Reinforcement And Family Training (CRAFT) with Motivational Interviewing (MI) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). Invitation to Change provides perspectives and skills to help you encourage your loved one toward recovery while increasing your own well-being.

“I've had the experience of sitting zazen and just watching the dust bunnies blow around and thinking ‘this is great…' It feels ordinary, and exciting, because only good can can come out of that sense of boring - showing up and hanging out without a lot of expectations.” - Heather Ross In our ongoing series where brave sangha members bring us the story of what they're doing and why they're here, Heather takes the hot seat to tell us all about ambition and being special, wanting to be special, the beauty of boredom, and the quest for the coolest Zen center that led (for better or for worse) to us, the most avowedly disappointing place in LA. What makes some people stick around for a practice predicated on disappointment, when the normal reaction would be to go find the fun? Is the pursuit of special the dominant religion in our culture? What exactly is the beauty of boredom?? Find out here!

In this week's Safe Home Podcast, Beth talks with Nicole Miller, a certified drug and alcohol counselor and coach from Oregon who teaches addiction pharmacology at Portland Community College. Even though she's very knowledgeable about all kinds of drugs, I brought her onto Safe Home Podcast to help us focus on fentanyl. It's such a dangerous drug, and deaths from fentanyl poisoning have skyrocketed in just the last 2 or 3 years. Our family really wants to raise awareness about fentanyl, so Nicole will help us all understand the risks and what we can all do to prevent deaths caused by fentanyl. This episode is dedicated to the memory of Helanna Johnson, our life coach Heather Ross's daughter who died in December 2021 from fentanyl poisoning. ===============

Heather Ross is a woman whose story is full of heartbreak, healing, love and a call for change. Heather's daughter struggled with substance addiction and at first Heather couldn't navigate how to support her but she realisation that healing, for both herself and her daughter, had to start with love. When Heather could separate her daughter from her addiction, she could then transform her own life and the relationship she had with her daughter. Now she's advocating that we can all love on a whole new level. Be Inspired xo
It is in Jessica's heart and vision for this podcast to spend more time shedding light on today's topic of mental health, addiction and shame. Having a sick kid and having a kid struggling with addiction are both hard on families but one carries a lot of extra societal judgment. Both families need and deserve community, understanding and support though the shame associated with addiction can drive some parents into isolation. Today Jessica interviews Heather Ross, a mother who was willing to do whatever it took to have a relationship with her daughter who struggled with addiction. Supporting her daughter taught her to focus on their similarities instead of their differences, be present as a mother, and love her daughter unconditionally for the 21 short years she had on this earth. After her daughter lost her life to fentanyl poisoning last year, Heather became even more dedicated to helping families heal. Her clients call her an expert at teaching them how to create peace of mind, space for change, and loving connection in their families. In addition to being a parent support coach Heather has over 20 years of experience in the recovery community, hosts the Living With Addiction Podcast, is a peer parent with the online parent support community Other Parents Like Me, and a CRAFT practitioner. Other Parents Like Me, LLC (OPLM) is an online membership-based platform for parents and caregivers of teens struggling with substance use and mental health issues. OPLM's virtual community is designed to create a safe space with the access and support parents need as they move from crisis to healing. For more information on OPLM visit here.

This week's episode is very special because #1 Joey is with us for this one. And #2: It's going to be a 3-way conversation with me, Joey, and our life coach Heather Ross. If you've listened to any of our episodes, you've probably heard me mention her, or you might have heard one of her 2 episodes we've already published - #10 and #34. In this Safe Home episode, we will be talking about how the CRAFT method has helped our family, and you'll hear from both sides - the parents' side and the teen's side. CRAFT is an acronym that stands for Community Reinforcement and Family Training. This is the approach that is scientifically proven to get more people into recovery than the old-fashioned approaches like tough love and interventions. The basis of CRAFT is the positive rewards that the loved one heaps on the addicted person when they are doing favorable behaviors. A key concept in CRAFT is that the relationship is more important than their sobriety. This method shifted our family so much that I credit it to keeping our son alive for these past few years. I'm very excited to share some details of the CRAFT approach with you. =============== RESOURCES: Heather's information: Website: HeatherRossCoaching.com Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/living-with-your-childs-addiction/id1543141299 Other resources mentioned in this episode: Beyond Addiction: How Science and Kindness Help People Change: https://motivationandchange.com/family-services/resources-for-families/ The CRAFT Approach: https://drugfree.org/article/craft-approach-encouraging-healthy-constructive-positive-changes-family/ Never Use Alone: https://neverusealone.com/ or 800-484-3731 How to get free Narcan: https://www.goodrx.com/naloxone/narcan-naloxone-at-home-free Safe Home is created by Joseph Nakao and Beth Syverson Music written and performed by Joseph Nakao Cover art by Joseph Nakao, photo by Beth Syverson www.SafeHomeFamilies.com TIME STAMPS: 3:30 Overview of Joey's struggles 6:40 Joey's new job has helped stabilize him 7:40 Alternative healing we've found to be helpful 11:32 How Heather and CRAFT helped save our family 16:24 Putting our kids under the microscope 19:29 Addiction causes hiding and masking 21:20 Changing the conversation with our addicted loved one 23:28 What Joey and Helanna received from substances 27:04 The goal is CONNECTION, not sobriety 33:25 Why some parents have trouble with the CRAFT Method 36:30 Sliding through life pre-crisis, asleep at the wheel 39:08 What our kids want from us 41:16 Enabling, Narcan, “rock bottom,” and stigma --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/safe-home-podcast/message

In this week's Safe Home Podcast, Beth talks with Pam Lanhart. She's the Director of the Minnesota based non-profit organization “Thrive Family Recovery Resources” that she started in 2016 to help families with addicted loved ones. She's a certified recovery coach, peer specialist, speaker, author, and advocate for those dealing with substance use disorder - and their families.. She has a book and a FB page called “Praying Our Loved One Home” that our Christian audience members will especially love. She recently lost her young adult son Jake to the disease of addiction, but like our dear friend Heather Ross, she is forging ahead, more determined than ever to help families so they can help their struggling teens and young adults who are battling with addiction. Pam subscribes, as I do, to the CRAFT approach of treating our addicted loved ones with unconditional love and positive regard, no matter where they are in their sobriety.

I thought her message would be welcome here on Safe Home Podcast since many in our audience are parents of adolescents. I know when Joey was in crisis mode, I almost completely lost myself for a while there, before I got connected with Heather Ross, OUR life coach, who BTW went to the same coaching school as Yvette. In this episode, you will receive practical tools from Yvette that you can put into practice right away. ===============

Your journey starts by taking back your power and shifting the focus back onto you! With compassion and grace, a positive psychology practitioner and the author of Saving You Is Killing Me: Loving Someone With An Addiction, Andrea Seydel offers support by sharing her personal experiences and the knowledge she used to help navigate the wreckage of her struggle. She exposes the tremendous power of how our relationships can both hurt us and allow us to heal. Trauma is a fact of life, and navigating the turmoil from loving someone with an addiction can be extremely challenging. Saving You Is Killing Me offers new hope for reclaiming your life. Seydel offers insight and learning opportunities for self-healing, recovery, and resilience that foster an empowering way of life.

We wrap up the topic of CLARITY with a tool I learned from an amazing coach, Heather Ross of the Living with Addiction podcast. It is a simple framework for deciding what we want to keep doing, being, or having, and what we want to stop doing, being, or having, and what we want to start doing, being, or having to create the life we desire most. It elegantly points out what we have accomplished and opens us up to choose with intention for the future. I hope you try this one out in your journal. You may be surprised at the clarity it brings for you.
