Sober Podcast 338 - Toxic Friends / Toxic Family

This podcast was recording live on September 201, 2019 in Burlington Vermont.

I received an email from Leener when she was about 8 months sober:

“Belle, I had a spat with my sister (via text, of course) on Friday and have been twisted up over it all weekend ... she and I would not be friends or ever interact if we were not family. At all. We are encouraged to drop toxic friends. Why can’t we drop toxic family?”

I bet you have an idea on what i might say, about you protecting you, in a kind way, with good boundaries. 

But I also talk about having a chicken in the oven as the solution to a lot of ‘phone’ conversations …
