What happens when the high-pressure environment of the trade industry meets the hidden world of addiction? This week, we welcome Amanda Lockyer from Addiction Makes Three to share her incredible transformation from a corporate accountant to a dedicated addiction coach.

Amanda sheds light on the unique challenges that tradies and their families face, including struggles with alcohol, gambling, and even social media and gym habits. She offers invaluable advice on recognising the signs of addiction, supporting loved ones empathetically, and seeking support for yourself.

We also delve into the societal stigma surrounding addiction, especially in Australian culture, and discuss how these misconceptions can prevent people from getting the help they need. Amanda shares her professional insights on living with a "functioning" addict, setting boundaries, and practicing self-care.

Whether you're personally affected by addiction or supporting someone who is, this episode is packed with hope, practical tools, and a reminder that help is available. Don't miss this empowering conversation aimed at uplifting tradie families.
