Navigating Co-Parenting with an Alcoholic: Real Stories and Practical Tools
“I think my real goal is that... I can really look back and see that I did the best I could and that I lived a life without resentment, and that I lived it with love towards my ex and my current husband as well.”
Co-parenting is challenging enough, but add an alcoholic into the mix, and it can feel like navigating a minefield. In this eye-opening episode of The Recovery Show, Lynne and Linzi open up about their personal journeys co-parenting with an alcoholic. They dive into the nitty-gritty of their experiences, sharing the struggles they faced and the tools they've found helpful along the way. From dealing with custody battles to explaining Al-Anon to their children, they leave no stone unturned.
They discuss the importance of 'dropping the rope'—letting go of control—and how this simple yet profound act can bring a sense of peace. They also touch on the unique challenges queer couples face in recovery and how they can navigate these waters together. By the end of the episode, Lynne shares her ultimate goal: living a life free of resentment and full of love for both her ex and her current partner.
This episode is a must-listen for anyone grappling with the complexities of co-parenting with an alcoholic.
