Michelle Weidenbenner was the only girl in a family with five brothers. She learned how to fight like a boy, but never expected to have to fight for her son's life because of his substance use disorder.

Thousands have joined.
If you want to start your recovery, and surround yourself with sisterhood and support, download her free ebook at MomsLettingGo.com.

Unhackable Moms of Addicted Loved Ones: Closing the Gap between Havoc and Hope by Michelle Weidenbenner is a blend of a compelling memoir and self-help, a powerful book that explores strong social themes and that addresses addiction from a fresh perspective. This book is a one-of-a-kind guide for people, especially moms, living with loved ones suffering from addiction. The book provides a comprehensive understanding of addiction and how it affects those dealing with the victims. This includes the fear that touches their hearts continually - the fear of losing the one they love, broken relationships, stress, and depression. Weidenbenner teaches readers to help loved ones with addiction without losing what is essential - self-care, balance, purpose, and a meaningful connection with loved ones.
This book is packed with surprising lessons and tools that equip readers to engage in effective and life-changing conversions, empower them to take control of their own lives, build the stamina to get through the chaos associated with addiction without falling apart, and a lot more. I particularly enjoyed the areas where Michelle Weidenbenner writes about listening to understand and setting bold boundaries. This book offers a path to transformation in 30 days for moms with loved ones who have an addiction. It is written in a compelling, authoritative, yet compassionate voice that reaches the hearts of readers. Unhackable Moms of Addicted Loved Ones is a gift of love from an author who writes after a journey of pain and healing and this book will help you take control of lives that are threatened by an addiction. Perfect for group discussions, one of those rare books you read and pass on!
