From Nagging to Nurturing: Setting Boundaries with a Partner Battling Addiction

You want to honor yourself by refusing to be the nagging wife.
Ever wonder why your partner chooses their friends over you? Michelle Anderson tackles this tough question head-on in this episode of 'Love Over Addiction'. Drawing from her own experience of being married to an alcoholic, Michelle opens up about a common yet harmful habit many partners fall into: nagging. She explains how nagging, though well-intentioned, can actually enable the addictive behavior by allowing your partner to dodge accountability.
Instead of nagging, Michelle encourages listeners to focus on setting healthy boundaries that respect their own needs and values. She shares practical tips on how to communicate these boundaries effectively without escalating conflict. Michelle also highlights the importance of honesty—both with yourself and with your partner—and stresses the value of seeking support from a community that understands your struggles.
In this heartfelt episode, Michelle creates a safe space for listeners to reflect on their own habits and consider new ways to foster healthier relationships. If you're feeling neglected and frustrated, this episode offers a roadmap to reclaiming your peace and strengthening your relationship. Tune in to learn how to transform nagging into nurturing and take the first steps towards a more balanced and fulfilling life.
