Booking Overview

This is a monthly interview-led recovery and family-support podcast featuring family members, people in recovery, addiction professionals, and occasional authors, alongside solo educational episodes. Credible pitches include addiction counselors, recovery practitioners, authors with relevant lived experience, and people who can discuss family recovery or evidence-based support; booking difficulty is likely low because guests are generally accessible professionals and subject-matter contributors rather than major public figures.
