Finding Love and Sobriety During Covid: Ross B.'s Journey

It's just very rare in life that we do sit and closely stare at each other in a way- like you- and I have always been really good about it too- where, when we're on, we're on, we're looking at each other and we are communicating with each other.
Navigating the rocky waters of recovery is challenging enough, but throw in a global pandemic, and it becomes a whole new ball game. In this heartfelt episode of 'Show Up and Stay', DeAnn Knighton sits down with Ross B. to share their unique story of finding love and sobriety during the COVID-19 lockdowns. Imagine building a relationship over Zoom while both partners are in the throes of recovery. Sounds tricky, right?
Ross and DeAnn managed to do just that, proving that connection can thrive even in the most trying times. They discuss the highs and lows of their journey, from meeting in a virtual recovery group to integrating their lives amid uncertainty. This episode sheds light on the importance of online recovery groups, which became lifelines for many during the pandemic. These groups provided not just support but a sense of community that helped combat isolation and loneliness.
Ross and DeAnn's story is a testament to the power of vulnerability and the deep, meaningful connections it can foster. Beyond their personal journey, they touch on broader themes like managing anxiety and depression during lockdown, the critical role of self-care, and how finding purpose can keep you grounded in your recovery. Whether you're struggling with addiction yourself or supporting someone who is, this episode offers valuable insights and inspiration.
Tune in to hear how Ross and DeAnn turned a challenging situation into an opportunity for growth and connection.
