The Hello Someday Podcast For Sober Curious Women Ep. 292: Is Your Loved One Struggling With Alcohol? What To Do Instead of “Detach With Love” with Lisa Katona Smith
If you’ve ever felt the ripple effects of alcohol or substance use in your family, you’re not imagining it—one person’s drinking can shake the whole system. I’ve been on both sides of that story: the woman who drank a bottle of wine at night and the partner trying to rebuild trust and rhythm at home.
I’m talking with Lisa Katona Smith—founder of Parallel Recovery, author of Parallel Recovery: A Guide for Those Who Love Someone Struggling with Substance Use Disorder, TEDx speaker, certified peer recovery specialist, and master-level educator. I asked Lisa to share how families can support a loved one’s recovery without detaching, by using compassionate boundaries, curiosity, and connection—so everyone can begin to heal.
