I stumbled on TWFO on TikTok and shortly after started listening to the podcasts. I joined the group on Facebook and all these together have given me resources and helped me become who I truly am meant to be. My husband is a recovering alcoholic and he even enjoys listening to the podcasts with...Read full review »

I found TWFO on IG about 1.5 years ago and it was so refreshing to hear someone like Paige and Matt talk and know EXACTLY how I was really feeling. I found them transparent, raw, and real. Al-Anon offered some help but TWFO has exceeded my expectations and has helped me the most!!

Someone referred to this podcast in a Facebook group I’m in. From the very first episode I could not believe how much they are like my husband and I. It’s like they are speaking our story. It gives me hope and I look forward to getting to listen to them all and stay current.

TWFO has impacted my life in such a positive manner. I could never thank Matt and Paige enough for the work they do for us listeners.

I struggled for so long to find something to relate to or someone that would understand!! These two and this podcast and this community is amazing!! If you struggle as a spouse of an addict of any kind or a person with trauma from a relationship with an addict this community is for you!!

Two words says it all. Thank you. Anyone whose life involves an addicted partner needs this podcast. It has saved my life and more importantly my kids’ life.
Qkeepmovin via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/17/24
You two are a gift. I was struggling to find help for myself while he was in recovery. I felt like I should be putting on a happy face everyday and be thrilled that he was getting better (and believe me I was - prayers were being answered daily) but I was hurting too. It felt like there was no...Read full review »

I just finished listening to my first episode while walking my 7 month old granddaughter. Walking is the only thing that is keeping me sane and what keeps me motivated to walk is educating myself thru podcasts such as these. I typed in Al-anon this morning in my search and found you. I know...Read full review »

I have felt lonely, sad, and lost for a very long time. Listening to this podcast has not only given me hope, but has given me relief, strength, and comfort. I’ve been hooked! I have had “aha!” moments, laughed, and even cried. I have listened to a few of the episodes multiple times because...Read full review »

As a partner of someone struggling with alcohol addiction/early recovery, I feel so validated every time I listen to an episode. They put my thoughts, feelings, and experiences into the words I didn’t have on my own, and have helped me navigate so many difficult situations and conversations....Read full review »

I cannot express what finding this resource has meant to me. I was obsessed with “helping”, owning my part, and doing everything just right in my role as a loving and supportive spouse to someone struggling with addiction. Listening to Matt and Paige opened my eyes that I’m not the problem,...Read full review »
Mperre5 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/10/24
Matt and Paige are the real deal! In sharing their story in relationship, this is the most current and comprehensive resource for addicts and loved ones! I laugh, I cry, I take notes, I’ve made forever friends. TWFO is what community is supposed to look like - authenticity and shared compassion....Read full review »
KristiTrader via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/01/24
I normally don’t leave reviews, but I can’t contain how much TWFO has helped me navigate thru the emotions of dealing with being collateral damage of addiction. Hearing both sides of how addiction affects people, from an entertaining couple is a MUST to listen to for anyone struggling. You’re...Read full review »

I found this podcast by the grace of God, when my husband entered rehab for alcoholism six months ago. It was like a much-needed friend in a time where I felt so alone!!!! My husband has remained sober, and we are working through this new journey together. He does his work and I’m doing my own...Read full review »

I’ve been listening for over a year, and have valued these thought provoking conversations and real life informative situations more than anything during this time. What Matt and Paige have clawed their way out of- and are sharing freely with those like people, is incredibly generous, vulnerable,...Read full review »

I had just decided to leave my alcoholic partner when I found the two of you - your content has helped me feel less isolated and less guilty about the hand I had in all that’s happened in our home. Even simply learning the correct verbiage for what I’d been experiencing gave me a lot of hope for...Read full review »

I did a year and a half of counseling focusing on my healing journey and self-love after years of fighting with my partner due to his drinking problem that was consuming me and changing my behaviors for the worst. Therapy was great for me! But the healing process is a continued journey and I...Read full review »

Your boundaries part 1 episode is seriously the most helpful episode I have heard. Well, and your first boundary episode with the “formula”.

My husband left for rehab 9 days ago. He will be gone for 30 days. We have a 8 year old and a 5 year old. This podcast truly has brought me such peace and hope! Keep doing Gods work!

You guys are such an inspiration! I can not tell you what a beacon of light you have brought into my life!

I found this podcast when I didn’t know how to handle some major issues in my own life that stemmed from a family member’s issues coming to a head.

Happy to have found your podcast. I will listen to more episodes as I have a need to learn as much as I can. I have a family member who is an active alcoholic. Thank you!
Frustratin via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/24/24
This podcast has been a lifeline when I have felt like I was drowning for many years! I highly recommend for any partner of someone in active addiction or recovery. I definitely would not have been able to get on the path to my own recovery without them!
Rach3254 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/20/24
Love this couple and love this perspective. As a recovery coach, this podcast covers all the topics I get asked most frequently. Great support for anyone in recovery or who loves someone in addiction or recovery.
cydodge via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/21/24
I struggled to find resources for my own recovery while my husband was in active addiction/recovery and I stumbled upon Matt on TikTok which led me here and I will continue to listen as long as they talk because it brings me great comfort to know I’m not alone!
happy capers via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/21/23
If you have a loved one that is it going through addiction/recovery and you feel lost, this is the podcast to listen to. I found so much insight and hope listening to this.
bicichick via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/09/23
This the first podcast I’ve heard that truly explores the partner/spouse’s experience of being with someone who is addicted. It’s validating and helpful.
E_Roo_77 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/03/23
I feel like you are telling our personal journey. Thank you for the empowering messages. I hope one day we can be on the other side.
Em7156 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/12/23
Thank y’all so much for doing this podcast. When my husband and I got married we were both in recovery. But not long after, he relapsed and I stayed clean. I was then not only an addict in recovery but the spouse of a using addict. He now has 30 days clean but the damage it has done in our...Read full review »

I started and cannot stop listening! It gives me hope and understanding. And I know I’m not alone in my circumstances.

Wow! I needed every bit of this today! “Trauma Bonding” is incredibly insightful. So many “YAAS!” moments from beginning to end of this podcast specifically. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I am going through this situation now and this is helping me get through my day and the courage to start my open co-dependent recovery process! Thank you for sharing your store!
Alex2556 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/24/23
I grew up across the street from Matt. We were friends and after high school we both led astray a life of addiction and we lost touch over the years. We both moved on from our addiction days of alcohol and drugs and married now with kids. I am not a listener of podcasts, but I decided to give...Read full review »

Any relationship is difficult under the best of circumstances. Hearing Matt and Paige talk through issues and thoughts I’ve had in my life makes me feel less alone. Sometimes that’s all you need in this world.
Love Thy Podcaster via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/07/22
I don’t think I can do this couple justice with words, but I will try. They’re steadfast and outrageously raw in every aspect of their lives. If you want fun, real, and vulnerable people to relate to look no further, this is the podcast for you. Not many people can say they’ve been together...Read full review »
