Where Problems Come From

This chapter explains how mental illness and addiction arise from a combination of genetic predisposition activated by stress, normal reactions to abnormal experiences, and personal choices, emphasizing that while people aren't responsible for developing these conditions, they are responsible for how they respond to and manage them.

The Road to Reconciliation describes a path towards healing and potential forgiveness for anyone in a relationship affected by selfishness, violence, abuse, addiction, or betrayal. It guides the reader (or podcast listener) on how to assess the damage done and recognize codependency and vindictiveness, blocking the way from injury to peace. It gives pragmatic advice on how to help you find safety, assert needs, apologize, make amends, and promote change.
