Do you long to ‘fix’ your addict or alcoholic? Are you tired of feeling alone and helpless? Would you like to leave behind the shame and judgment? Maybe even the constant worry for your safety or the safety of your children?
You’ve come to the right place! This podcast is here to offer you tools, stories, and support – reminding you that you’re not alone. We’ll provide opportunities for breakthroughs, resources to help you get the support you need, and the relief you’ve been seeking for yourself or your loved one.
I’m Jeri – the “don’t rock the boat” daughter, former co-dependent spouse, and stressed-out mom of the addicts and alcoholics in my life. For years, I was the helpless co-dependent who didn’t have the resources I so desperately needed. I read the books, prayed endlessly, and thought that if I just said or did the right thing, I could make the chaos stop.
But one day, I took the step I had been avoiding – seeking the support and healing I so desperately needed to overcome the wounds caused by this destructive disease. I discovered life-changing tools and resources, and now, I can’t wait to share them with you.
If you’re ready to hear stories of hope, help, and healing,
to learn strategies and solutions to get out of the crazy,
and to hear how others, facing similar struggles, found their breakthrough – this podcast is for you!
So grab your journal, a cup of tea, and maybe a tissue – and let’s dive in!

From the foster care system to street criminal to support his habit, James shares a daunting story of hardened criminal to TRUE RESTORATION! You don't want to miss this riveting story of drugs, felonies, jail and more. With over 200 arrests to his name, James shares of the 'very bad place with very bad people' where he would spend hard time, until an encounter with God would change it all. But it wouldn't be an easy transition! James would spend 21 days on the floor of a jail cell coming off heroine with no one wanting anything to do with him. The JOY that is now the trajectory of his story simply cannot be denied. Let's go listen now! (But WAIT - there's a technical difficulty at about the 6-min mark where we lose connection. Please wait - or simply fast forward a few seconds - you don't want to miss out on the rest of the story!)
