Hotspot Description

Recovery doesn’t happen in isolationβ€”and neither should your support. This tool helps loved ones identify, expand, and engage their own support networks so they’re not solely dependent on the client’s progress.

**Available in the online store β€” unlockable with points or purchase.**

This tool is part of the full _Understanding Addiction eBook_. The complete version includes reflection prompts, case examples, and companion tools.
