Rebuilding Love: Dana and Frank's Journey Through Sobriety and Marriage

I think we laugh a lot more than we did before. Yes, but I will say, with the caveat of, is kind of heart wrenching to now realize how many families this same thing, that they're just dealing with the same thing.
Sheri and Matt Salis invite listeners to a deeply personal episode of the Untoxicated Podcast, featuring Dana and Frank, a couple who have fought hard to reclaim their marriage from the grips of alcoholism. This marks the first time Sheri and Matt have hosted a couple sharing their story of recovery together, making it a unique episode that offers both hope and practical insights for those in similar situations.
Frank, who has been sober for over a year, speaks candidly about the patience and effort required to rebuild trust and intimacy. He acknowledges the long-term commitment necessary to prove to Dana that his sobriety is here to stay. Dana, on the other hand, opens up about the emotional toll that Frank's addiction took on their family and how she found the strength to support his recovery.
She emphasizes that despite all the hardships, her love for Frank made the journey worthwhile. Throughout the episode, the conversation touches on vital aspects of recovery such as maintaining physical health, managing resentments, and finding joy in life post-addiction. Frank and Dana’s story is a testament to the power of patience, commitment, and love in overcoming the challenges posed by addiction. This episode is a must-listen for anyone looking to understand the complexities of recovering a relationship after addiction.
Whether you're in recovery yourself or supporting a loved one through it, Dana and Frank’s experience offers valuable lessons and a beacon of hope.
