Family dynamics can be a puzzle, especially when sobriety enters the picture.

Sobriety isn't just about the person quitting alcohol; it impacts everyone involved. Have you ever wondered how responsibilities and perceptions change when someone gets sober?
Tanya and Jerry discuss how the 'scapegoat' and the 'saint' roles often evolve, highlighting that every family member has both strengths and weaknesses to navigate. Through heartfelt discussions, they emphasize the importance of self-reflection and spiritual growth. The episode also touches on the sometimes tough but necessary step of distancing from unsupportive family members to protect one's sobriety.

Tanya and Jerry bring a Christian perspective to their conversation, discussing how faith and therapy can play crucial roles in the healing process. Their candid dialogue provides a beacon of hope for anyone navigating the choppy waters of family dynamics in sobriety.
