Balancing Love and Recovery: Husbands Share Their Stories

Episode Overview

  • Balancing individual recovery with married life and its challenges
  • Importance of quality time and openness in nurturing healthy marriages
  • Recognising personal limitations and embracing grace and self-accountability
  • Living amends, progress over perfection, and the role of faith in strengthening marriages
  • Encouraging listeners to seek support and intentionality in their own marriages
One of the biggest expectations we need to manage is that our spouse is not our sponsor. Recognising the need for intentionality, grace, and self-accountability is vital in nurturing a healthy marriage.
Marriage is challenging enough on its own, but throw in the complexities of addiction recovery, and it can feel like an uphill battle. In this episode of The Recovery Podcast, hosts Kyle Sears, Mitch Spies, Noah Demerly, and Matt sit down to discuss the unique hurdles that come with maintaining a marriage while working on personal recovery. While the conversation is geared towards men, it's packed with insights that anyone in a relationship can benefit from.
These guys don't hold back as they talk about the struggles they face and the lessons they've learned along the way. They highlight the importance of being intentional with your time, practicing self-accountability, and showing grace both to yourself and your partner. One key takeaway? The idea of 'living amends'—making ongoing efforts to improve and make up for past mistakes rather than just saying sorry.
They also touch on the concept of progress over perfection, reminding us that it's okay to stumble as long as you're moving forward. Faith plays a significant role in their journeys, offering a source of strength and guidance. If you're looking for real talk about the ups and downs of balancing recovery with married life, this episode is a must-listen.
It's a heartfelt, honest conversation that encourages listeners to seek support and be intentional in their relationships, no matter where they are on their recovery journey.
