Resourcefulness

This week we’re talking about the genius ways in which addicts can source their drugs of choice, hide them up from prying eyes, and generally give the impression that everything is fine when it patently isn’t.We also discuss how, if put to positive use, this imagination, tenacity, and creativity can turn lives around in the most remarkable ways.Martin discovers a kindred spirit in a much loved Christmas film, reminds me of being fat-shamed at my own wedding, and I get grumpy about advent
