Tonya D's Path to Healing: Finding Strength in Family Support

I never would have thought that my daughter was going to have a sibling on the way, and now I'm Seven Months pregnant and expecting in July, and I would not have told you that my husband was sober and living life to the fullest.
Tonya D thought she was signing up to fix her husband's drinking problem. Instead, she found a lifeline for herself. In this episode of The Magdalen House Podcast, Tonya opens up about her unexpected journey to recovery through her husband's alcoholism. Initially seeking ways to sober him up, she stumbled upon a supportive community that would help her rediscover her own strength and self-worth.
With the guidance of her sponsor, Tonya learned to set healthy boundaries, live with compassion, and trust in her higher power. Today, she's a testament to the power of family support in the recovery process. This episode dives into the challenges and triumphs of dealing with a loved one's addiction, highlighting coping mechanisms, the role of spirituality, and the importance of community.
Whether you're struggling with a family member's addiction or looking for inspiration on your own recovery journey, Tonya's story offers a beacon of hope and practical advice.
