When we share our stories and we resonate, we share the pain and it helps people heal, and that is an undisputable fact of the work that we do, whether it's writing or talking.
Ever wondered how alcohol can turn a loving relationship into a battleground? Matt and Sheri Salis know this all too well. In this eye-opening episode of the Untoxicated Podcast, they lay bare the heartbreaking transformation of their marriage from passionate to painful, all thanks to alcohol. Their journey began like many others, with romance and a few drinks. But as life’s pressures mounted—work stress, raising kids—alcohol became a destructive force, squeezing the love out of their physical connection.
Now, in the throes of recovery, Matt and Sheri are on a mission to rebuild trust and intimacy from the shattered pieces of their past. They talk candidly about the selfish nature of addiction and the monumental effort it takes to move forward. Through their raw storytelling, they offer hope and practical advice for anyone facing similar struggles. They also touch on how alcohol affects dating and relationships, often lowering standards and causing more harm than good.
Despite the uphill battle, Matt and Sheri remain hopeful about the future, believing that love and intimacy can be restored. This episode is a must-listen for anyone looking to understand the complex dynamics of addiction and recovery in relationships.
