Empty Nest, Full Hearts: Doug and Staci's Guide to Love and Recovery

It's just like a non-negotiable for me, is like we can't pretend it didn't happen, whatever it might be if we argued about something.
Imagine your kids have flown the nest, and it's just you and your partner again. What now? In this episode of 'The Addicted to Love Podcast', Doug and Staci Wilkinson tackle the challenges and joys of becoming empty nesters. They share candid stories about how they keep their relationship strong, emphasizing the importance of 'fighting fair'—no digging up old arguments—and the necessity of regular date nights to keep the spark alive.
But it's not all about romance; they dive into their experiences with parenting and how they cherish the small moments with their child. Alongside these personal anecdotes, Doug and Staci offer valuable insights into how substance abuse has shaped their relationship and family life. With a blend of humor and heartfelt reflection, they remind us that even in tough times, those little moments are what make life truly special.
If you're looking for a mix of practical advice and genuine warmth, this episode is a must-listen.
