Addiction Recovery with Compassion: Healing the Trauma That Fuels It

How does trauma shape addiction—and how can recovery programs support true healing?

In this week’s episode of Deciphering Growth, we break down what it really means for recovery spaces to be trauma-informed. We talk about the language that helps (and harms), common missteps in traditional models, and the importance of nervous system regulation in healing.

We’re also exploring alternative programs and what it means to build safer, more supportive recovery environments for everyone.

✨ If you’ve ever wondered why some recovery programs miss the mark—or how we can do better—this is an episode for you.
