    After meeting each other at a liquor store three Sundays in a row waiting for it to open, Don and Nan spent years drowning in addiction together — and somehow got sober at the exact same moment. In this episode, Tom sits down with Don and Nan to talk about what actually worked, why tough love isn't always the answer, and how one father's compassion (instead of consequences) may have been the thing that saved his son's life. If you have a loved one struggling with addiction, this episode will challenge everything you've been told about what it takes to get someone sober.

    In this episode, we break down why romantic and sexual relationships are one of the top drivers of relapse in early recovery — and what families need to watch for. They cover the four core reasons relationships derail recovery, share real stories from years of working with clients, and talk about what actually needs to be in place before someone in recovery is ready to date. Whether you're a family member trying to understand what's happening with your loved one, or you're in recovery yourself, this episode is a must-watch.

    Is kratom really a safe alternative — or just another addiction in disguise? In this video, I'm giving you my honest, real-world take on kratom based on working with addicts every single day. This isn't theory. This is what I actually see happening to people who use kratom thinking it's going to help their recovery.

    We're talking about kratom effects, kratom addiction, and why I don't believe kratom belongs in anyone's recovery plan. If you or someone you love is using kratom or thinking about starting, watch this first.

    She got sober at 18 years old — before she ever had a legal drink. In this episode, I sit down with Anna, a 19-year-old who went through multiple treatment attempts, residential, PHP, IOP — the whole process — and came out the other side with a year and a half of sobriety, a job in treatment, and a life she's actually proud of. We talk about what finally made it click, what her parents did right (and what they struggled with), and why waiting for someone to "hit rock bottom" might not mean what you think it means. If you're a parent watching this wondering what you could have done differently — this episode is for you. And if you're young and think you're too young to have a real problem — this one's for you too.

    Is your husband's alcoholism affecting your family? You're not alone — and you're not overreacting.

    In this video I'm going to give you three things: clarity on what you're actually dealing with, a real strategy based on who your husband is, and permission to start taking care of yourself. We cover the difference between problem drinking and alcohol use disorder, the 11 clinical signs from the DSM-5 in plain language, what actually works when talking to your husband (and what makes things worse), and how to protect yourself and your kids regardless of what he decides to do.

    Whether you just started noticing something is wrong or you've been living this for years — this video is for you.
