  • So glad I found this podcast! 🙌

    I am so thankful for having found this podcast. I have felt very alone for a long time in my struggle with my loved one and his addictions. I finally feel like I have some tools by listening to your suggestions and feel better already knowing that there are ways different than how I have been coping which gives me hope and a new found strength. Thank you so very much 💞

  • Invaluable help

    These podcasts have been a lifeline for me, especially in recognizing my part, what I do that has been not only unhelpful, but actually hurtful, even with the best of intentions. I can’t recommend them enough

  • Hope rediscovered…

    I found my way to CRAFT through a SMART Recovery Family & Friends group in Australia. I’ve taken a deep deep dive, learned so much through these episodes - and found hope again through stories, and guidance that there is another way we can try to live with and beyond this issue.

    Thank you for sharing your experience and expertise on how to love well. I’ve been a regular listener (several on rewind!) since June of ‘21. I’ve now listened to every episode. I take notes. I buy books. I’m now a parent peer support facilitator and YOU, Allies in Recovery are the breeze in my sail that started this parental healing journey as I love through the pain of other’s choices and live my day (mostly!) well. Your work is appreciated. Please don’t stop helping other parents. Three of my... more

  • Helpful show!

    I really like your show. I have learned a lot. But not sure about Bill Carruthers long winded speech. Your listeners are here to learn - we don’t need the motivational speech and typical jargon. I appreciate the other episodes much more where talk about problems and their solutions and the skills we can use.
