This week, Karen sits down with Marc Kantor, a certified intervention professional and founder of South Florida Interventions. Marc shares his struggle with addiction and his road to recovery. Karen and Marc discuss the intervention process which can save lives and how important it is for family members to realize addiction is a family disease. This is a not to be missed episode since over 20 million Americans are struggling with addiction and the deaths from overdoses and alcoholism total hundreds of thousands a year. We do recover and there is a path forward; first, there has to be awareness, acceptance, and action before change can occur.
In this episode, you will learn:
- About the connection-pillars: Navigating Chaos Comfortably, Demonstrating Accountability, and Exhibiting Empathy
- How awareness and acceptance fuels recovery
- Ways to set meaningful boundaries with those you love
- How people in recovery and their families can forgive, love, and form healthy connections
