Justin Wren is my partner, as you may know, and he is headed to treatment after two significant relapses that deeply impacted me.

He joined in the studio to have this conversation, and the whole thing is a but of a blur for me. I was still deep in anger and unprocessed trauma (yes, trauma) during this recording. I almost didn’t air this episode after he left for treatment because I was so angry.

But I decided to air it after all. My emotional journey around this has been intense. Listen as we address how we are communicating through my anger, his relapses, and the lies. It’s a work in progress but we felt it was important to try and share as we go. 

I hope that if you are dealing with codependency or addiction or an addict in your life that this helps you. We do have choices in how we communicate and can approach it from higher ground, even when it’s really challenging. 

Stay tuned for next week’s solocast as I go deeper on how this felt for me and how I’ve been processing and working through all the emotions. This follows the last two episodes chronicling my self-trust and anger journey and practices around that.
