Episode 71: Recovery and Gender Roles with Marya Hornbacher
Gender is often a core part of identity, and like other aspects of identity, it fundamentally shapes our perception of ourselves, each other and our experiences in the world. From the earliest recovery literature to the most contemporary recovery meetings, gender roles have affected and continue to affect both individual recovery and recovery communities.
In this previously recorded episode of our educational series, Mental Health Monday, Marya Hornbacher and SHE RECOVERS Co-Founder Dr. Dawn Nickel, have an insightful, lively and engaging look at the role of gender in recovery.
Marya doesn't hold back as she speaks about being a woman in the recovery space and the difficulties that come along with this.
