Families recovering from Teen addiction

I am creating this blog in hopes to reach other families suffering form the pain of substance abuse within their family. My family has been struggling for the past few years with my teenage son's addiction to drugs. I have decided to take the most painful event of my life and create an opportunity for growth. I am changing the direction of my career to help other families deal with this debilitating disease of addiction and am in the process of studying and preparing to launch a program for holistic recovery and relapse prevention for teens and their families. 

I am in the process of becoming a Life Coach and will use these skills to work as a recovery coach for youth recovering form addictions and their families, as well as trying to encourage youth with active addiction to see their strengths and the path to overcome their addiction. I will also be educating parents and youth on drug use and coach families through treatment and through the fragile time of recovery. 

For today I leave you with this quote from Robin Sharma "See the best in people who have never seen the best in themselves!"

Peace & Love
