New TEDx Talk: A Parent’s Guide to Recovering from Addiction!

Last Updated:

Dec 20, 2023

TEDx just launched my talk, telling my story and sharing important things we've learned over the last eight years about how to help a loved one recover from addiction.

The challenges we encountered finding effective treatment for my daughter's addiction are what originally drove me to start both Vista Research Group and Conquer Addiction in 2014/2015.

Please share this video with anyone you know who has a family member struggling with addiction or is struggling themselves.

Thank you very much!

Conquer Addiction was created as a result of our family’s searing journey trying to find our daughter the help she needed to recover from severe alcoholism. As we’ve talked with other families during and after these scary years, we’ve learned that most of us were forced to rely on chance conversations and blind luck to find help for our sons and daughters. With a disease in which second chances are never guaranteed, this is totally unacceptable!

Today, dozens of progressive rehabs are measuring and working to improve the effectiveness of their treatment. With immense gratitude to the addiction treatment community that played such a critical role in helping Karina recover, Joanna and Karina converted Conquer Addiction, Inc. into a nonprofit and officially launched this website and directory in June 2020.
