I came across your podcast after a google search of my husband drinks too much beer. The first episode I listened to was March of 2021 (I think) of an interview with a woman should I stay or go. It hit home. I have never really thought of leaving. We will be married 30 years next month. But it’s...Read full review »

5 years in Love Over addiction, I’ve been guided to detach healthily from my AH and it’s been 4 years on.. I was already 1 foot out the door for at least 10 years before that. Each conscious peaceful moment I make now is because I’ve discovered this program. It was exactly what I needed, I...Read full review »

I started listening a few years ago after I was so drained from this and started googling about being married to a man who had an alcohol addiction. I feel so grateful that those right search terms pulled up a web site that led me to here. I work from home and listen all day to these podcasts on...Read full review »

Her podcast was my lifeline in 2020. At that time married 35 years and had to say no more to the crazy cycle of addiction. I learned so much from her. I learned about addiction and the behaviors. I developed compassion for myself when all I knew was compassion for everyone else. I accepted I was...Read full review »

I cannot begin to tell you how life changing it has been for me listening to your podcast. I’ve lived in confusion for 6 1/2 years with my alcoholic BF. I am finally able to see the light and have made the decision to break off our relationship for good, once and for all! However, the transition...Read full review »

It felt so good to know I was not the cause of my spouses alcoholism. For so long he told me that I was the cause and sadly I believed it. I was speechless when I heard my first podcasts. It was like she was reading my mind. It literally gives you the nuggets to decide if you feel staying is the...Read full review »

I found this podcast at the right time! It has been so great listening. I scrolled all the way back to the beginning and haven’t stopped listening! It’s been the reassurance that I so desperately need! This is NOT and easy road and to know I’m not alone nor crazy has just been fresh air! Great...Read full review »

I love Michelle and these episodes. Almost every one hits me right where I need it. I’m finally not alone. And I’m not crazy. And I’m not all bad for reacting the way I have to the chaos around me. Thank you, Michelle and guests. I miss new episodes and am sad that recordings ended.

I was at my lowest point in dealing with my partner and his alcohol addiction. I found this podcast, played it non stop and cried often because I felt like someone finally understood what I was going through. Michelle has a calming voice and the best advice through her own experience and...Read full review »

It’s as if Michelle is a fly on my wall, watching and telling my story. Wish I would have found this podcast sooner. It’s nice to have someone that gets it, experienced it, and is here to help you through it.

I found this podcast while searching for resources to help me as the lid blew off my husband’s alcohol addiction and he entered treatment. I didn’t realize how much his disease had broke and consumed me until he was gone. Listening daily from the very early episodes, Michelle’s guidance has made...Read full review »

I use this podcast as a therapist working with families who have a loved one in treatment. It helps me understand concepts and gives me ideas on how to communicate them to others.

I have just found this podcast and I am quickly listening to all the older episodes.

How many of us listened to these podcasts after the kids were in bed as we emptied the dishwasher and stood there frozen as we heard our actual lives described?

I just finished my first 2 of your podcasts and everything sounds so shockingly familiar. The second one I listened to was your personal story of when you got divorced.

I stumbled across your podcasts fall of 2020, I felt so sad and depressed and alone at that time, I couldn’t stop listening to the podcasts from the beginning.

I stumbled across your podcast one day while painting my bedroom two yrs ago. It was a weekday and I’d called in “sick” to work because I just couldn’t do it that day. My husband had been on a bender and I was searching for help (for me). I’ve tuned in almost every day since then. I cannot...Read full review »

Listening to my first episode, extremely helpful to be broaching these tender subjects and bringing them to light making people feel less alone. Shame can’t live in the light of day! But how hard would it be to invest in better sound equipment? Also, the interviewer could ask more concise...Read full review »

Wow! When I heard this episode, it almost felt like I was the one telling the story.

I recently stumbled upon your podcast and I cannot believe you are leaving.

5 minutes into a podcast episode and I feel seen and heard. I’m hurting, confused, scared and blame myself for not understanding or being strong enough to leave. This resource is invaluable to me. Thank you for speaking out.
