Real Change Starts When You Stop Doing It for Them
with Rob Reynolds
ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Families want to help, but most of the time they accidentally slow down recovery by doing too much. Rob Reynolds shares that it took two and a half years before people started to breathe again. We talk about what showing up actually means for families of addicts. Not just paying bills or saying sorry. Being present. Putting the phone down. Real change doesn't happen when you're trying to make someone treat you better. It happens when you decide to change for you and God.
