What do we do when someone we love has self destructive behavior?In this episode of Be Faithful, I sit down with my former YSA Bishop, Buzz Welch, to talk about setting boundaries, navigating complicated family relationships, and learning to rely fully on Jesus Christ through life’s hardest moments. Buzz opens up about his own family’s journey, including supporting a son who battled addiction for many years and passed away in 2019. He shares how they found peace, hope, and healing through the Savior’s love and the guidance of the Holy Ghost. Together, Lauren and Buzz discuss:• What Christlike love truly looks like — without shame or guilt• How to love yourself so you can better love others • Creating healthy emotional and spiritual boundaries• The role of the Holy Ghost in making hard decisions • Finding peace when a loved one struggles or leaves the Church• Becoming peacemakers in a world filled with tensionThis is a hopeful, spiritually uplifting conversation for anyone dealing with family conflict, faith transitions, or the weight of loving someone through self-destruction.
