    Are You Enabling Your Adult Child? What Every Parent Should Know About Addiction, Boundaries, and Faith - Ep 98 | Her Desired Haven

    👩🏾‍👧🏽‍👦🏿 Are you helping your child—or enabling them? In this powerful episode, family recovery coach and author Darryl Rodgers shares how parents can support a loved one struggling with addiction without losing themselves in the process. After the tragic loss of his son, Chase, Darryl discovered that true healing comes when families learn to set healthy boundaries, find faith-based support, and heal together. 💙 You’ll learn how to identify enabling behaviors, what to do when you first discover your child is using drugs, and how faith can bring peace and restoration in the middle of heartbreak. 📖 Bible Verse To Meditate On: (Psalm 127:3-5) "Children are a heritage from the Lord, offspring a reward from him. Like arrows in the hands of a warrior are children born in one’s youth. Blessed is the man whose quiver is full of them. They will not be put to shame when they contend with their opponents in court." 🗣️ Guest: Darryl Rodgers 📘Books: ⁠ https://thefamilyrecoverycoach.com/resources⁠ 💜 Website:⁠ https://thefamilyrecoverycoach.com/ ⁠ 💛Facebook:⁠ ⁠https://www.facebook.com/darryl.rodgers1⁠ 💙Instagram: ⁠https://www.instagram.com/drodgers61/⁠ 🎧 Podcast: ⁠⁠https://open.spotify.com/show/0pssHljgjMOVEEp8sV2nV3?si=5f5491c3b7a94ebc⁠⁠ PODCASTING TOOLS: 👩🏾‍💻 Editing Software: Riverside.fm - ⁠https://riverside.fm/?via=HerDesiredHaven⁠ 🫱🏽‍🫲🏽 Easily Find & Booking Guests - ⁠https://www.joinpodmatch.com/herdesiredhaven⁠ 🗣️ Easily Find Podcasts to Speak on - ⁠https://www.joinpodmatch.com/herdesiredhaven⁠ #HerDesiredHaven #ChristianPodcast #Healing Together #AddictionRecovery #ParentingThroughAddiction #StopEnabling #FaithAndHealing #ChristianPodcast #FamilyRecovery #HealthyBoundaries #HopeForParents **This post contains affiliate links.
