The Joyful Courage podcast; how to be with teen substance use

I joined Casey O’Roarty on The Joyful Courage podcast to talk about teens who are exploring risky behavior and using drugs regularly/daily. I share tips for having uncomfortable (and ongoing) conversations about drug use with your adolescent and how to come from a place of curiosity, not judgment. We talk about why the confrontational, punitive approach does not work & to consider drug use as a solution for a problem you don’t know about.
