Hope for Families - Real Talk with Amber Hollingsworth
Description
On this episode of The Sober Edge, I’m joined by Amber Hollingsworth, a family recovery expert who has spent nearly 20 years helping loved ones find a path through the chaos of addiction. Amber is known for her refreshingly direct and practical approach—what she jokingly calls being “a little bossy.”
Instead of leaving families guessing at what to do or say, Amber offers clear, actionable guidance that can ease tension, reduce resentment, and create real change. We talk about how families can support their loved ones without losing themselves, why trying to “always say the right thing” can backfire, and what to do instead.
Amber also introduces her exciting new tool, Amber AI—a way for families to get her wisdom on demand, right when they need it most.
This is a conversation full of hope, honesty, and the kind of advice that meets families where they really are.
