0:00.0	This is Dr. Lisa Marie Bobby and you're listening to the love, happiness, and success podcast.
0:07.4	When someone you care about is struggling with a mental health issue, an addiction, a toxic
0:13.6	relationship, or any other really self-destructive pattern, it's hard to know what to do.
0:19.9	Should you intervene? Should you mind your own business?
0:22.6	What if your loved one's idea of getting help is telling you all about their problems? How can you help someone get help while still having healthy boundaries? That's what we're talking about on today's episode.
0:49.5	We're listening to Wolf Alice with the song Storms from their Creature Songs album.
0:56.7	You can learn more about Wolf Alice and see what they're up to. They have some new records out. I think they may be going on tour relatively soon, but you can keep track of all of it on their bandcamp page,
1:03.5	test wolfallis.bandcamp.com. And hey, before we dive into today's topic, I just want to say thank you so much. I am not typically
1:16.3	sort of on top of podcast stats all the time. I do this because I like doing it and I'd keep

1:27.7	I noticed that our monthly audience has grown to like 300,000 people, which I can't even

1:40.4	But I just wanted to acknowledge that and just thank you guys so much for your support. I know
1:47.8	it's because you are listening to this show and sharing the show and helping it grow. And so
1:54.4	it's very heartening. It was just a few years ago that seemed like maybe about 10 people listened to each episode,
2:02.9	one of them being my mother. And it's just, anyway, this is such a labor of love for me,
2:08.0	and it's really exciting to see it grow. And I think the part that's most meaningful to me is
2:14.3	knowing that it's growing because it's meaningful to you. So that makes me just so happy.
2:21.3	Thank you for listening. And thank you for supporting the show, you know, just sharing episodes
2:26.0	as people who you think might benefit from them. If you cared to take the time to leave a review
2:32.3	on, you know, iTunes or wherever you listen,
2:35.6	certainly subscribe to the show.
