In this heartfelt conversation, Heather sits down with Pam Lanhart from Thrive Family Recovery Resources to explore how to keep living with purpose, joy, and connection when life throws everything at you—family challenges, health scares, and the unpredictable ups and downs of a child struggling with substance use.
Together, Heather and Pam discuss:
•How to reclaim moments of joy without feeling like you’re betraying your child who is struggling
•Why mental and emotional health require daily, intentional “work”
•The power of routines, gratitude, and small daily practices to anchor you in the hardest seasons
•What it really means to model emotional health and resilience for your children
•How living in alignment with your values brings peace of mind, even when life feels uncertain
Pam also shares the practices that have carried her through her darkest moments, including journaling, movement, gratitude, and creating opportunities for connection and fun, reminding us that it is not only okay to be okay, it’s essential.
If you’ve ever felt like life’s waves were too relentless to find your footing, this conversation will inspire you to anchor in your own healing, reclaim the small joys, and show up in a way you can feel proud of, no matter what life brings.
