Episode Synopsis

In this powerful episode, Dr. Zoe sits down with author and biblical life coach Dawn Ward to talk about the often-invisible toll that guilt, shame, and self-blame take on mothers of addicted children. Dawn shares how faith helped her move forward in her calling, even while her loved ones were still in the midst of their struggle. Together, they explore how trauma can keep us stuck, what it means to truly feel again, and how to reclaim peace without waiting for the perfect outcome. Dawn Ward is an author, speaker, Bible teacher, and a certified biblical life coach. She is the founder of The Faith to Flourish, a ministry offering support and encouragement to women with addicted loved ones. She is married to Steve and mom to three adult children. Her book, From Guilt to Grace: Hope and Healing for Christian Moms of Addicted Children, published September 2024, is now available.   Connect with Dawn: Website: www.thefaithtoflourish.com Instagram: @thefaithtoflourishblog Her Book: From Guilt to Grace: Hope and Healing for Christian Moms of Addicted Children: here   Resources & Links: Free Downloads: Steps to Healing from Complex Shame™: here Share This Episode With: A friend stuck in a confusing, painful relationship Someone who keeps hoping for change but needs permission to take a breath Any woman struggling to trust again—whether in their relationship, or in themselves Subscribe + Review: If this episode spoke to your heart, please rate and review the show!
