In this episode of "Evan the Counselor Live," I have the extraordinary privilege of chatting with a colleague, friend, and a truly inspirational figure – Katie Donovan. Despite my extensive experience in working with families and individuals grappling with addiction, both personally and professionally, it's Katie I turn to when I need deeper insights.

Katie isn't just a writer and content creator; she is, most importantly, a mother. Her daughter's battle with severe addiction and mental health challenges has not only shaped her journey but also empowered her to assist thousands of families in crisis. These families, often feeling lost and fearing for their loved ones' lives, have found guidance and hope through Katie's work.

What sets Katie apart is her unique, compassionate, and balanced approach to mindfully supporting those precious individuals in our lives who we deeply care for, yet fear for their safety. Her blend of knowledge, experience, and insight is invaluable, making her an indispensable resource in this field.

I highly recommend diving into this podcast and immersing yourself in Katie's work. Her wisdom is a beacon for anyone navigating the turbulent waters of addiction and mental health within their family.
