In this deeply moving episode, I sit down with Julie Sanford, a recovery mentor and the founder of Married to Addiction, to discuss the challenges and triumphs that come with loving someone battling addiction. Julie opens up about her personal journey through her husband’s alcoholism, the turmoil it created in her family, and the pivotal moments that led her to God’s calling in helping other wives of alcoholics. From the darkest days of her husband's suicide attempts to finding peace and healing through faith, Julie shares heartfelt insights on how to stop drowning in a loved one's addiction and emerge stronger on the other side. Tune in as we talk about spiritual warfare, learning from what not to do, and the power of God’s grace in recovery. You won’t want to miss this episode filled with wisdom, hope, and healing for anyone facing a similar journey.

Are you caught in the chaos of addiction, constantly cleaning up emotional, spiritual, and physical messes that aren't yours? Welcome to Faith Over Addiction, where faith meets real life. Hosted by Family Recovery Coach Tanya Gioia, this podcast is designed to offer Christian women hope, healing, and practical tools to navigate the challenges of loving someone with addiction.

Through biblical truths, heartfelt stories, and actionable guidance, you’ll learn how to set healthy boundaries, find peace in the mess, and reclaim your God-given identity. You don’t have to carry what was never meant to be yours. It’s time to shift from “this is happening to me” to “this is happening for me,” and let God transform the chaos into something that glorifies Him.

Every week, I’m here to encourage you, offer clarity, and remind you that as a daughter of the King, You Always Have Other Options (YAHOO). Together, we’ll embrace faith as the foundation, boundaries as the bridge to healing, and God’s truth as the ultimate guide to freedom, strength, and grace.

Blessings,

Tanya Gioia 🌸
