Jack and April explore the often overlooked but deeply impactful role of codependency in addiction and healing. They share how codependent behaviors—like people-pleasing, enabling, and lack of boundaries—can keep us stuck in the cycle of addiction or derail our recovery journey. This episode dives into how friends and family, often with the best intentions, may unknowingly hinder recovery by becoming entangled in codependent patterns. With honesty and insight, Jack and April highlight the importance of self-awareness, emotional boundaries, and detachment with love.

Jack and April dive into one of the most debated topics in the recovery community.

With honesty and respect, they discuss t.orge stigma, the support, and the truth that recovery is not one-size-fits-all. This episode is a reminder that there are many valid pathways to healing, and works for one person may not work for another.
