Navigating Love and Sobriety: Insights from Relationship Expert Haya Kalechman
“It is: do what feels safe and comfortable for you. It's stating your needs, because if you don't tell anybody what you actually need, surely you're not going to get it, that's for sure, and that is something that is very difficult for most of us - is to first identify what our needs and desires are and then expressing them, expressing them in the most simple way possible.”
Relationships can be a minefield, especially when you're on a journey to sobriety. In this episode, Janey Lee Grace sits down with Haya S. Kalechman, a seasoned relationship and sex expert, to tackle the complexities of maintaining and building relationships while staying alcohol-free. Whether it's dealing with unsupportive partners, navigating the dating scene, or managing sober sex, Haya offers practical advice that's both empathetic and straightforward.
