She gently nudges parents to take personal responsibility, engage with therapists, and embrace community support.
With a focus on practical steps and heartfelt advice, Angie reminds us that recovery is a collective effort, urging listeners to find their tribe and take one step at a time. Whether you're a parent, sibling, or friend of someone battling SUD, this episode offers a lifeline of hope and actionable strategies.
