“Mornings with Lisa Marie” – a show that takes a positive/light-hearted spin on what some people may view as controversial or negative subjects.

This week Lisa sits down with Michael Pond and Maureen Palmer, the co-author’s of the book “The Couch of Willingness – An Alcoholic Therapist Battles the Bottle and a Broken Recovery System”.

“After two decades of helping clients battle addiction, Michael Pond, a successful therapist, succumbs to one himself. He loses his practice, his home and his family to alcoholism, ending up destitute in a down and out recovery home. Pond’s harrowing two-year journey to sobriety takes stops in abandoned sheds, dumpsters, ditches, emergency wards, intensive care and, finally prison. Along the way, he finds himself shamed and stigmatized by the very system in which he used to thrive”.
