    Episode 129: The Version of Your Marriage You're Grieving

    There's a kind of grief that doesn't have a name. It's not the grief of losing someone. It's not the grief of a marriage that ended.

Today's episode is for the woman who has been carrying that quietly, heavily, with nowhere to put it. You'll learn: 💛 Why grieving your marriage doesn't mean you've decided to leave 💛 The specific cruelty of a grief nobody else can see 💛 Why this loss is real — even when nothing has officially ended 💛 What to do with the weight of it Friend, you are not being dramatic. You are not giving up. You are grieving something real. ---------------------------------------------------- PLEASE NOTE: This podcast is pre-recorded, so not all offers mentioned may be currently available.

    Episode 126: The Loneliness of Keeping a Secret in Public

    One of the hardest parts of being married to an alcoholic is carrying a pain that no one around you can see. In this episode, we talk about the deep loneliness of pretending everything is fine while quietly struggling behind closed doors — and why keeping this secret for so long can leave you emotionally exhausted and stuck. You’ll learn: 💛 Why so many wives stay silent about addiction at home 💛 The emotional toll of constantly “performing normal” in public 💛 Why isolated suffering keeps healing out of reach 💛 The importance of having one safe place to be honest about what you’re carrying Friend, you were never meant to hold all of this alone.Your story deserves support too. --------------------------------------------------------------- PLEASE NOTE: This podcast is pre-recorded, so not all offers mentioned/listed will be currently available. 👉🏻For a current list of everything that Married to Addiction has to offer please⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠click here⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ to visit the MTA 'Everything Page'⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 💗To get my Boundaries Course ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠click right here⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠. 💗To join my Secret Sisters Circle program ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠click right here⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠. 💗To get my 30 day online on-demand program ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠click right here⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.

    Episode 125: Trying to Trust God While Nothing Is Changing

    If you’ve been praying, hoping, and trying to trust God… but your situation still feels painfully the same, you’re not alone. Living with addiction can create a deep tension between faith and reality. You want to trust God, but it’s hard when the same patterns keep repeating and nothing seems to be changing. In this episode, we talk honestly about that struggle—and why your weariness does not mean your faith is failing. You’ll learn: 💛 Why this situation feels spiritually and emotionally exhausting 💛 What trusting God actually looks like in a hard season 💛 Why prayer alone doesn’t remove the need for guidance and support 💛 How to stop carrying the pressure of figuring everything out on your own Friend, you can trust God… and still need support while you walk through this. --------------------------------------------------------------- PLEASE NOTE: This podcast is pre-recorded, so not all offers mentioned/listed will be currently available. 👉🏻For a current list of everything that Married to Addiction has to offer please⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠click here⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ to visit the MTA 'Everything Page'⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 💗To get my Boundaries Course ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠click right here⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠. 💗To join my Secret Sisters Circle program ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠click right here⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠. 💗To get my 30 day online on-demand program ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠click right here⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.
