While I openly own the fact that I'm an alcoholic, I think by owning the disease and owning the label, I destigmatize it to some degree and I take the power out of the label.
What happens when alcoholism threatens to tear apart a marriage? In this heartfelt episode of The Buttrfly Effect podcast, host Gail Ferguson Jones sits down with Matt Salis, the author of 'soberevolution: Evolve into Sobriety and Recover Your Alcoholic Marriage.' Matt opens up about his descent into alcoholism, the denial that kept him from seeing its impact on his family, and his eventual path to sobriety.
His candid story sheds light on the strain addiction places on relationships and the crucial steps needed for healing. Matt emphasizes the power of owning the label 'alcoholic' as a way to destigmatize the disease and foster openness in recovery. This episode is a powerful reminder that while the journey to sobriety is deeply personal, it can also pave the way for stronger, healthier relationships.
Whether you're struggling with addiction yourself or supporting a loved one through it, this conversation offers valuable insights and hope.
