Let Go + Use Your Voice Do you have a loved one that is an addict? Do you struggle with feelings of inadequacy in providing help for your loved one’s addiction? Are you always in panic mode or on high alert wondering if they are ok? Is your #1 wish to wake up and still have your loved one alive? Do you neglect your own self-care because you put your loved one’s needs in front of your own? Are you wondering if others are succeeding in helping their loved ones through this difficult journey? In this podcast, you will find hope while navigating through your loved one’s addiction. My mission is to create a safe space for both the addict and the loved one’s supporting the addict to talk freely about their struggles and their fears and also build a community that understands the importance of connection, setting healthy boundaries and consistent self-care. If you’ve been feeling alone in this addiction journey, you’re in the right place my friend! You’ve found a beautiful space to connect with others that are navigating this very challenging life path and are here for you. I’m Tiff, your host. I’ve experienced all of this. My older brother Cory struggled with addictions, mental health challenges and unresolved trauma. He passed away in October 2021 of a Fentanyl drug overdose. I don’t want you to experience the pain and grief that our family has been navigating, but I also understand the complexities that the addiction world brings. I’m here to tell you, you’re not alone. If you are ready to connect with others and find hope while navigating your loved one’s addiction, get those earbuds in because it’s time to get started.

EP 41 - Leave Your Light On - With Shelley Buck & Kathy Curtis

I had the honor to speak with Shelley Buck and Kathy Curtis about the book they wrote called “Leave Your Light On”. This book is about Shelley’s son Ryder Buck. I read the book in about 3 hours, I couldn’t put it down and from the description I give now you will understand why:
Rarely does someone so joyfully authentic come along and flash a light so bright you can’t help but feel a rush of hope. Ryder Buck was such a guy.
He was charming and hilarious, ornery and aggravating, and he delighted in his love of music. Nothing more and nothing less than himself, his self-acceptance fueled his audacious dreams and taught him to have faith and just let go. Ryder lived a magical life, but he was also tested in ways many of us never will be. He endured the pain of a cancer diagnosis and the hardship of chemo treatment. And when the disease that should have beaten him didn’t, his unimaginable fate showed up on a dark highway.
Then his light began to shine even brighter. It led his mother out of the dark tunnel of her grief. It cradled a family, heartbroken by his silent guitar, to find healing together. It has given people throughout the world the encouragement to be who they really are, to discover their own purpose- to wake up to the magic in their own hearts.
Ryder’s story will inspire you to see your own light – no matter what life or death throws your way.
