Why Women Leave Recovery... and What Brings Them Back
with Ashley Franich
Why do women leave recovery programs? And what brings them back? Ashley Franich joins me to talk about the real reasons women want to leave residential treatment. The number one issue is simple and brutal. Missing children. That ache will hijack every thought. Ashley shares what it looked like when staff rallied around women in those moments. Praying through panic. Sitting with them through the night. We talk about the unforced rhythms of grace from Matthew 11 and how women need space to breathe.
