The less time you spend stuck in denial in different chapters in your story, the quicker you can get from point a to point b. If you have sought out a podcast on the internet that's about relationship recovery from alcoholism, it's bad.
Imagine spending a decade grappling with alcoholism, only to realize that denial was the biggest hurdle. That's the journey Matt and Sheri Salis unpack in this episode of the Untoxicated Podcast. Matt's ten-year struggle to achieve permanent sobriety is a story of resilience, but also of the heavy toll that denial can take on recovery. Both he and Sheri were caught in a web of denial, making the road to recovery much longer than it needed to be.
They share their personal stories with raw honesty, hoping to help others avoid the same pitfalls. Their conversation doesn't just stop at personal anecdotes; they dive into how societal norms can enable addiction and how crucial it is to build connections for successful recovery. And just when you think it's all serious talk, they end with a joke so bad that it sends Sheri running from the room!
This episode is a must-listen for anyone who loves or has loved an alcoholic, offering both heartfelt stories and practical advice for moving past denial and embracing sobriety.
