"We lose trust in bucketfuls and gain it back in teaspoons."
Trust is a fragile thing, and when addiction enters the picture, it can shatter relationships faster than you can say 'bucketful'. In this episode of Finding Hope, Amy LaRue and Darcie Stephens tackle the daunting challenge of rebuilding trust in relationships affected by addiction. It's a rollercoaster of emotions as they discuss how trust is lost in large amounts and regained slowly, one teaspoon at a time.
Darcie shares her personal experiences, highlighting the struggles of trusting someone who repeatedly breaks promises. The duo also explores the temptation to control loved ones as a way to rebuild trust, which often backfires and leads to more chaos. Amy and Darcie's conversation isn't just about broken trust—it's about finding peace amidst the storm. They emphasise the importance of surrendering control and placing trust in a higher power, offering comfort to those feeling lost and weary.
They share practical advice on setting boundaries and seeking support from trusted friends or counsellors. This episode is not only an exploration of trust but also a reminder that you're not alone in your struggles. Amy's heartfelt message encourages you to find strength in community and faith, leaving you with the hope that trust can be rebuilt, even if it takes time and patience.
If you've ever found yourself questioning who you can rely on, this episode offers a compassionate guide to navigating those murky waters.
