How to Spot Addiction in Your Loved One and Support Their Recovery

When someone you love is struggling with addiction, it can feel like you're walking on eggshells- worried, confused and unsure what to say or do. In this episode, we’re talking honestly about how to spot the early signs of addiction, what not to ignore and how families can offer support without losing themselves in the process. My guest Vandana Hiranandani is the founder of Anatta Humaniversity, a luxury residential rehabilitation center specializing in holistic, client-specific, and non-medical approaches to recovery from addiction to drugs, alcohol, and other substances. Together, we’re unpacking what addiction can look like behind closed doors because it’s not always what you think. We’re also diving into healthy boundaries, emotional burnout and the small ways families can play a powerful role in a loved one’s recovery journey. Whether you're a parent, partner, sibling or friend- this one’s for you. No shame. No judgment. Just real talk and practical help.
