Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Ep 156: Loving Someone With Addiction Without Losing Yourself w/ Guest Sallee New
Q: How can someone know if they are enabling versus helping?
Enabling can involve doing things the person should do for themselves or removing the natural consequences of their actions; helping is guiding, supporting, and providing resources while still allowing the person to face consequences and take responsibility.
Ep 156: Loving Someone With Addiction Without Losing Yourself w/ Guest Sallee New
Q: So, what are some of those ways that a person can forgive while that person is in active addiction or set boundaries lovingly without losing themselves?
Compassionate boundaries, practical limits (like guiding the person toward detox or treatment), and using support networks to remain steady—while avoiding financial enablement—help protect one's wellbeing and encourage healthier paths for the loved one.
