Finding Fulfillment: Meeting Your Needs Amidst Your Husband's Addiction

If you have those deep roots because of a relationship with God and because you have nurtured that relationship, and it is a personal, intimate relationship with the Lord... nurture that relationship and it will come back to you a hundredfold.
Feeling like your needs are always on the back burner because of your husband's alcoholism? You're not alone. In this heartfelt episode of 'Married to Addiction', host Julie Sanford dives deep into the emotional turmoil that wives of alcoholics often face. Julie shares her own struggles and the moments when she felt like she was barely holding on. She talks about the importance of not relying solely on others to meet your needs, especially when dealing with a partner's addiction.
Instead, she emphasizes the power of building a personal and intimate relationship with God and setting healthy boundaries to protect your well-being. As Valentine's Day looms, Julie offers a beacon of hope and encouragement, reminding you that you deserve to have your needs met and that there's a path to healing and recovery. She also highlights two upcoming events—a Boundaries Workshop and a retreat for families of those struggling with addiction—that can provide additional support and community.
This episode is a must-listen for anyone feeling lost and looking for practical advice and spiritual solace.
