setting and holding healthy boundaries
How to hold boundaries with a child misusing substances
Setting and holding healthy boundaries is one of the most challenging things parents need to do when your child misuses drugs and alcohol. Our kids push our limits to the max, so learning ways to lovingly create boundaries that keep us healthy and sane is very important.
Boundaries are a gift we give ourselves to stay healthy, uphold our values and maintain control

the stages of change
a workshop to finally understand why your child does the things they do
More than anything, you probably want to understand why your child is doing what they're doing and to make sense of their thinking, actions, and behavior.
The best way to get insight into these things is to understand the transtheoretical model of behavior change, also known as The Stages of Change.
change is a process, not an event

What people are saying
Connecting live is very healing to not feel so alone, and get to know other women walking this journey. Attending the education seminars (or the replays) helped me learn a ton and I felt super empowered.

Seeing faces and hearing stories during zoom calls has helped me connect the most. After listening to so many podcasts, I already felt like Brenda was an old friend.

I wish I’d had something like the Boundaries workshop when my daughter went to her first outpatient treatment. It would have been so helpful to have even one person tell us we had permission to set and stick to boundaries for our mental health. We just muscled through it.

I've only been here a less than a minute and I love all this content. With two kids having substance misuse issues, the Boundaries workshop is wonderful - I know first hand how hard it is to set boundaries when your kid uses drugs.
