Are you questioning if your partner's recovery is genuine or performative? In this episode, Amie and Alana delve into the concept of weaponized recovery, helping you understand when recovery efforts may be used manipulatively rather than authentically. 

Learn to identify signs of true recovery, the importance of somatic work, and how to maintain your own mental and emotional safety. 

Listen to learn:

• What confusion is teaching you

• How playing the victim and seeking validation can shift responsibility where it doesn’t belong - onto betrayed partners

• The importance of integrity in healing
