Who hasn’t been affected by someone else’s drinking problem or other addiction? 

Slammed with the overwhelmingly painful behaviors resulting from my son’s struggle with addiction changed me - for the better

I tell the stories in my book, Transforming to Joy; Responding to My Son’s Struggle with Addiction. Simply put, my thinking and being shifted from reacting with fear to responding with love.  

I hit my bottom in 2009. The frustration and anger at my son for repeating destructive behaviors and at myself for not being able to control or cure him began to affect my physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual health. I couldn’t go on the way I had been. 

Transforming to Joy begins here, with the conscious choice I made to change. I am happy to share with you my story about my relationship with my son, Adam. Through this relationship, I have learned to live a more aware, truthful, appreciative, and loving life.

This moment in time especially needs stories that offer a hopeful path to women and men experiencing the pain of loving someone with an addiction. Just as importantly, it is for those seeking peace within any tumultuous circumstance. This book provides perspective, support, and practical tools for your journey.

"When he broke one of our agreed upon house rules, it came as quite a blow to me. The details of the error are irrelevant. What is relevant is the way we worked through it."
