Parenting Through the Messy and Bitter Times: Wisdom and Joy in the Face of A Child's Addiction, with Brenda Zane

EPISODE DESCRIPTION: It"s summer and we"re diving deep into the Hopestream episode vault to bring you some listener faves and a few that just work when you need connection and understanding. Today, you"ll hear about The Secret Menu, originally aired in August of 2023 - with the addition of a new story and insights. Sometimes you can gain a different understanding of things by looking at them through a new lens. This bite-size episode does that for you as the parent of a young person who struggles with substances and mental health - in the form of a short story. You"ll hear about a restaurant owner and her strange, secret menu. And for those who eat from it, it can provide benefits and gifts not available anywhere else. It"s one you may want to single-task for to absorb the full meaning. Created with love and compassion by me, just for you.  This podcast is part of a nonprofit called Hopestream Community Learn about The Stream, our private online community for moms Find us on Instagram here Find us on YouTube here Download a free e-book, Worried Sick: A Compassionate Guide For Parents When Your Teen or Young Adult Child Misuses Drugs and Alcohol Hopestream Community is a registered 501(c)3 nonprofit organization and an Amazon Associate.
