In this episode of the Pathway to Recovery podcast, Justin B., a recovering sex addict, speaks with Roxanna Johnson (Roxy), a pioneer of the SA Lifeline Foundation and the SAL 12-step program. We start our journey through the 12 pieces of the SAL Recovery Puzzle beginning with the central piece of a "Willing Heart".  Roxy shares her powerful journey of healing from the trauma of her husband's sexual addiction and how she found hope and recovery through the 12-step program. She discusses the importance of developing a willing heart, setting boundaries, and putting God at the center of one's life. The episode delves into the emotional challenges faced by spouses, the significance of empathy and trust in recovery, and the vital role of community support. Roxy also introduces her book, 'Forgotten in the Battle with Sexual Addiction: The Journey of a Spouse,' which aims to guide and support other spouses through their own recovery journeys.
