Sobriety's Unexpected Toll: Simone Meyer's Journey Through Addiction and Divorce

Unfortunately, through the divorce, a lot was shared with the two older kids that, in my opinion, should not have been shared.

In this episode, Simone, a close friend of host Matt Salis, lays bare the brutal reality of how getting sober can sometimes unravel the very fabric of a relationship.

She opens up about the ongoing repair work in her relationships with her children and the emotional toll of early recovery.
