[S2] EPISODE 12: RECOVERY HAS BROUGHT STRUCTURE TO MY LEADERSHIP

In this heartfelt and hilarious episode of That Husband Podcast, Blaque sits down with newlywed Codi van der Merwe—just two months into marriage but already deep in the thick of it. From garlic debates in the kitchen to learning how to simply sit and watch your wife's favourite show, Codi opens up about the joy and humility marriage brings. Together, they explore the raw question: What is a husband? Codi’s answer is honest, refreshing, and packed with lessons from his journey of recovery, routine, and learning to lead with love.

The episode doesn’t just stay lighthearted—it dives deep. Codi shares openly about his past struggles with addiction, what nine years of sobriety has taught him, and how his structured lifestyle has shaped the early rhythms of his marriage. Blaque and Codi unpack how spiritual dryness, emotional distance, and selfish habits often start with missing the “small signs.” This conversation is an invitation for husbands to be more present, more self-aware, and more in tune with their wives—before the garlic turns into something greater.

If you’re married, newlywed, or wondering what it really means to show up as a husband, this episode will leave you encouraged, challenged, and laughing. Whether you’re fighting over Forensic Files vs. Bongile or navigating real pain like addiction and healing—this one’s for you.
