Rebuilding Trust: Chantal Jauvin on Relationships and Recovery

We had to find our way, and we did so. Although that sounds sometimes like a worn-out cliche, I think it's very applicable to this book because after I'd written all of the stories, I was privileged enough to have a space I could go to to write.
Ever wondered how to mend a relationship strained by addiction? In this episode of The Addicted Mind Podcast, host Duane Osterlind sits down with Chantal Jauvin, an international corporate attorney, to discuss her journey of recovery as the partner of someone with a substance use disorder. Chantal's story begins with falling in love with a man who turned out to be a functional alcoholic, a reality she initially couldn't face.
Her candid conversation offers a raw look into the mistrust, lies, and secrecy that often accompany addiction, and how these challenges can damage intimacy and connection. Chantal shares how she and her husband navigated the rocky road of recovery, emphasizing the importance of individuality, accountability, and trust. Through relationship counseling and shared activities, they managed to rebuild their bond. This episode is packed with practical advice for anyone looking to repair and strengthen their relationships while dealing with addiction.
If you're struggling with similar issues or know someone who is, Chantal's insights could be the guiding light you need.
