Revolutionizing Support: Dr. Robert Weiss on Prodependence

Prodependence is the next paradigm, and I don't say that lightly. And we wonder if you would write a clinical guide and workbook. What I've done is created a legacy for myself.
Imagine a world where loving and caring for someone with an addiction doesn't come with a side of guilt and blame. In this episode of the Positive Sobriety Podcast, hosts Nate Larkin and David Hampton chat with Dr. Robert Weiss, a leading expert in sex addiction and acclaimed author. Dr. Weiss introduces listeners to the concept of Prodependence, a fresh perspective that shifts away from the traditional codependency model.
He argues that the old way of thinking often places unnecessary burden and stigma on those trying to support their loved ones through addiction. Dr. Weiss explains how Prodependence focuses on fostering healthy connections and providing unwavering support, rather than labeling caregivers as enablers. He dives into the differences between Prodependence and codependency, shedding light on why the former can be a game-changer in the realm of addiction recovery. Throughout the conversation, Dr.
Weiss debunks common myths about codependency and offers practical advice for those looking to adopt this new approach. Listeners will find themselves rethinking how they view their roles in their loved ones' recovery journeys. With insights on intimacy, connection, and the critical role of support, this episode is a must-listen for anyone touched by addiction. Whether you're directly affected or supporting someone who is, Dr.
Weiss’s revolutionary ideas provide a refreshing and hopeful outlook on how to navigate these challenging waters. Tune in to discover how Prodependence can transform your approach to supporting loved ones in their recovery journey, making it not just more effective but also more compassionate.
