It is an incredible challenge to navigate personal recovery from addiction, but perhaps even more challenging to navigate it alongside a loved one. It all boils down to how little control we have. Today's guest is someone who has navigated his own recovery and now uses his story to compassionately and strategically support parents of kids who are battling an addiction to drugs or alcohol. Mike is a substance abuse counselor and the founder of PAL (Parents of Addicted Loved Ones.) Mike unpacks what the four seasons of recovery for parents are and why anticipating these seasons can prepare you for inevitable relapse and hopelessness. You are not the problem, but you have been made part of the problem. Finding resources and a community that understands the unique challenge of supporting a child facing addiction is key to being available to celebrate the breakthroughs and stay present on the dark days. In this episode you'll learn: How to engage loved ones in a conversation about their relationship with drugs or alcohol even if they don't recognize it as an addiction Why addiction is classified or often referred to as a disease How shame fuels addiction Why we need to have both short-term and long-term goals to experience lasting change What is and what's not part of the parent's role in the healing process for a child struggling with addiction   Grab your copy of Lifted From Shame Order your eBook or print book on Amazon here.

Seven years ago, Kristine Ayers Cline saw a need. She was in a field in which she worked with people with disabilities and she started to notice a pattern: Many of those she worked with would come into her office asking for help to file for social security benefits. She had the ability to help them file, but she chose first to try to inspire them instead. Her belief is that ‘everyone can do something'.Kristine has a passion for helping children find & achieve their dreams.. and out of this passion, Laurel Academy was born. She believed that she could help students avoid the typical cycle by partnering with them at a young age. Laurel Academy is a private Christian school located in Terra Alta, West Virginia, specializing in special education. Though they specialize in special education, there is a place at the table for everyone at Laurel Academy.

“Where you stand, be the soul of that place.” This Rumi quote always reminds me of Manish Chandra. He's not only the soul of every place he's in. He illuminates the soul of every person he meets, as a father, friend, and the founder of Poshmark. Manish is an incredible teacher who I'm honored to call my friend. I was thankful to explore the spirit he embodies in today's episode — One of love and connection, gratitude and perspective. I've returned to his words on adaptability over the last few months… “Adaptability is, given a set of situations, instead of resisting it, you embrace and surrender to it. Then, figure out: How do you succeed in that situation? How do you adapt? There's always a winning strategy. If you approach it with that possibility, first of all, it's hopeful, right? It's optimism. It means that you can succeed. Second, by not resisting the circumstances, you take the time to understand the circumstances. Third, life is a series of these episodes. So, you can apply your learnings to different circumstances and grow in various ways. All of these things are amazing byproducts of first accepting the circumstance, then adapting, then succeeding.” I'm thankful to close our Inspiring Hope series with Manish's wisdom. In illuminating our agency, he reminds us that hope is always possible.

How can I make this person feel seen, heard, and valued in the most authentic way possible?  Girls Who Code CEO Dr. Tarika Barrett asks this question before every conversation. Her exuberance sharing it became an anchoring insight in our Inspiring Hope series…  “These are vital acts — Be it with your children, colleagues, family, or friends…We don't give joy its due; By being agents of joy, we can enact change. We think about every problem around us, as opposed to recognizing that these small and big acts of joy have tremendous power.”  In our conversation, we explore her wisdom as an invitation. When we measure our impact by magnitude, change feels out of reach. When we measure it by the difference we can make in one life, we awaken to a deeper sense of purpose.  As we embark on this series, I invite you to join me in adopting her ritual over the next five weeks. Prior to every interaction, consider asking: How can I make this person feel seen, heard, and valued in the most authentic way possible?  Imagine the collective hope we'll inspire when we do.

Chelsea Hicks was an amazing little girl who loved life.  In April 2007, Chelsea was diagnosed with Stage IV Wilms' tumor cancer, involving her right kidney, lymph nodes and lungs.  She was just three years old at the time.   Her constant companion during 13 surgeries, 20 months of chemo, and 9 doses of radiation in her 22 months of treatment was “E-E,” her beloved stuffed pink monkey.  Despite all of her treatment and medication, Chelsea always found  an energy and determination to bounce back.   Chelsea's smiling face and zest for life was contagious.  Chelsea loved to dress up, have tea parties and parades while on the oncology floor.On February 20, 2009, Chelsea lost her courageous battle.  She was only five years old.  Those who knew her will forever be grateful for the hours of fun and play that she inspired with her impish grin and infectious laughter.  She will never be forgotten and they continue to honor her by helping other kids fighting serious illnesses with The Chelsea Hicks Foundation and Chelsea's Closet program.More About Chelsea Hicks Foundation & Chelsea's Closet:  https://www.chelseahicksfoundation.org/Donate to Chelsea Hicks Foundation:  https://chelseahicks.ejoinme.org/donationsSupport This Podcast!

Janet T. Phan is a Senior Technical Project Manager at Amazon and the founder of Thriving Elements, an organization that mentors underrepresented girls in STEM. Her new book, Boldly You, is a story about discovering what you're capable of when you show up for yourself.  But what does that mean? Janet explains, if there's something that you believe is the right thing to do, you must follow your instinct. It isn't easy, especially when you're in a vulnerable place. You need the courage to believe in yourself, act on those beliefs, and not behave based on the expectations of others. Janet founded Thriving Elements to help instill confidence in young girls and give them opportunities to thrive. In this episode of Motivational Mondays, she reflects back and shares that where she is now is because of the mentors in her life.
