Dating in Recovery: Stories and Strategies from The Broke Girl Society and Rachel Goodman
“I think what I would say to those thoughts of I am not good enough is that you know what I am not for everyone, and that's what makes me special.”
Dating is tricky enough, but throw recovery into the mix, and it can feel like navigating a maze. In this episode of 'The Broke Girl Society', Christina brings together some of the wonderful ladies from the BGS Facebook group—Kayo, Gail, Terra, and Kitty—to share their personal tales of dating while in recovery. Alongside them is Rachel Goodman, a couples and relationship coach, who adds her professional touch to the conversation.
They dive into the nitty-gritty of when to reveal your recovery journey to a new partner, how to handle the emotional ups and downs of dating, and the crucial aspect of setting healthy boundaries. Ever wondered how to protect your sobriety while getting to know someone new? Or how to deal with breadcrumbing without losing your sense of self? These women have been there and done that, and they're not holding back.
Their stories are filled with real-life experiences—some triumphant, others challenging—but all aimed at offering hope and practical advice. This episode is a heartfelt mix of humor, honesty, and expert guidance that makes it a must-listen for anyone trying to balance recovery with romance.
