Healing Hearts: Navigating Relationships in Early Recovery with Lacey Durham

I think that being in the recovery process for a while, it's like you begin to sort of learn, like you know, as your self-esteem grows too, like you know what was acceptable before is not acceptable now.
What happens to your relationships when you decide to get sober? In this heartfelt episode of the Landmark Recovery Podcast, hosts Zach and Michael dive into the delicate art of mending and sometimes letting go of relationships in early recovery. They sit down with Lacey Durham, a peer coach for Face It TOGETHER, who brings two decades of personal experience with addiction and recovery to the table.
Lacey’s journey is both a cautionary tale and a beacon of hope for those grappling with the dual challenges of sobriety and relationship repair. She opens up about the necessity of having a solid plan when leaving rehab, emphasizing the importance of finding a trustworthy person or support group to lean on. It's not just about staying sober; it's about rebuilding self-esteem and giving time to heal broken bonds.
One of the key takeaways from this episode is recognizing toxic relationships and knowing when it’s time to let go. Lacey discusses the emotional toll of unhealthy relationships and how peer coaching can provide a vital support system during these trying times. The conversation touches on setting boundaries, dealing with emotional and mental abuse, and the significance of progress over perfection.
Whether you're in recovery or supporting someone who is, this episode offers practical advice and heartfelt insights that can make a world of difference. Tune in for a candid discussion that could be the first step toward healthier, happier relationships.
