Loving someone with an addiction is one of the most painful and complex experiences a parent can face—especially when that child is now an adult. In this episode, Monica and Donna King explore what it truly means to "let go" without giving up. Donna shares her journey of navigating addiction with her daughter. She shares practical insights and emotional support for setting boundaries, preserving your own well-being, and navigating the fine line between enabling and empowering. Whether you're in the midst of crisis or seeking long-term strategies, this conversation offers clarity, compassion, and a reminder that letting go doesn’t mean giving up—it means loving in a new way.
