Stop Hiding Start Healing
Craig Brown Author | Speaker | Podcast Host

We hide out in the open. All of us have secrets, pain, shame, guilt and failures as a result of poor choices we have made on our life’s journey. We are embarrassed and fearful of what others might think of us should we come out of hiding and reveal that which we have hidden all these years. We like to hide in order to not expose our weaknesses. We wear various masks based on our personality, surroundings and peer group. We suffer in silence. But we were never meant to suffer alone.


Our secrets, pain, shame and guilt, if not processed appropriately, can wreak havoc on us emotionally, mentally, physically and spiritually. It can undermine our family, relationships, marriage, professional career, self-esteem and purpose. It becomes a pattern and affects your ability to communicate. Discover how you can stop hiding and start healing when your pain is greater than your fear.
 

Parents Action Network - Topic: Marijuana-It’s Not What You Think
Crissy Groenewegen PAN Director

The Parent Action Network was created with the belief that families have a lot to lose if decision-makers aren’t held accountable for making smart, science-based actions on the legalization of marijuana. We believe that most people are naïve to the real harms of today’s marijuana. They are confused by the messaging that cannabis is a safe, medically-based product, that is harm-free for recreational use. The true reality is… marijuana is more potent and harmful than ever before. PAN not only seeks to educate parents on current issues, arming them with science-based facts, but also seeks to train and empower families so they have the confidence and tools necessary to encourage decision-makers to make informed decisions regarding legalized marijuana that protect our public health and safety.

Interventions Explained
Sam Davis Interventionist-Founder IOC

I have been performing addiction interventions for over a decade.  In that time, I have assisted thousands of families on their journeys to recovery. A family history of alcoholism coupled with intense childhood trauma created the perfect storm of addiction in my life, which almost destroyed my relationships with the ones I loved.

The work my family did was crucial in creating the willingness in me to change my life. Our relationships are stronger than they've ever been, and I have a life of freedom I never thought possible.  I am honored to help families achieve the same freedom I have.
