Loving someone struggling with addiction can sometimes make things feel out of control in your relationship and your life. And when you start feeling that way, it's normal to want to control everything because it's hard to let go, right?

Letting go can feel a little scary, or like everything may fall apart if you do. So I reached out to the women in our Secret Facebook Group and asked, "what’s something you’re having a hard time letting go of?"

Tune in to this week's episode, where I answer some of those questions, and why in certain situations, letting go doesn't apply.

Thinking about whether you should stay in or leave your relationship with your loved one struggling with addiction can be hard, right? It might give you little pangs of anxiety (which is completely normal). But just know that you're not alone in this journey (and there's never any judgment on what you decide to do).

When you love someone suffering from addiction, you've maybe wondered: why am I not good enough for them to get sober? Or thinking that if your partner would just get sober, you'd finally be able to feel happy again. This can then start a downward spiral with how you're feeling.

But the loving truth is that basing your mood on how others are feeling (or what they're doing) is not healthy.

So how do you make sure that regardless of things going wrong around you, they don't affect how you feel?

Tune in this week to hear why it's important to be in control of your mood, along with some helpful (and actionable) tips that I share.

When you think about the relationship you have with your loved one that suffers from addiction, you're more than likely the one who does all of the giving and gets nothing - or very little - in return. Does this sound familiar?

But here's the thing: that's not a normal relationship because addiction is not normal.

Tune into this week's episode to hear why you might be experiencing some trauma because of your loved one's behavior. I also share how to get to a place of feeling empowered and happy again (and why you deserve the love that you so freely give to others).

When you love someone struggling with addiction, you want so badly to help them get healthy and be the person they were before addiction took over. Can you relate?

But the loving truth is that their addiction is not your battle to fight. It's time to release that back to them because you deserve to have comfort in your mind, body, and spirit. You're in charge of protecting your peace, and you need to do everything possible to make that happen.

Tune in to this week's episode, where I share how to get to a place of comfort and be your biggest ally.

Feeling anger, fear, or sadness when you love someone struggling with addiction is normal (even if you're no longer with them). And it's also understandable if you've felt all three at the same time. You've gone through a lot because of their actions and behaviors.

That's why it's so important to let yourself mourn: for what used to be good in your relationship and for what you had always envisioned could be.

Tune in to this week's episode as I share an 'aha' moment after I worked out recently and how it relates to addiction (because you know I'm always able to).

Feeling distrust in your relationship when you love someone struggling with addiction can be quite common. But there is some real danger in that.

Because addiction doesn't like to tell the truth (and it wants to stay in control), it decides to tell lies. Maybe they've denied drinking or taking pills or texting other people that they shouldn't. When the lies start, this is how distrust forms.

Tune in to hear this week's episode where I talk about the danger (and signs) of distrust and how you can start to move past it.

Whether your loved one suffers from addiction or not, having trust in your relationship is essential. Right? Because without it, you'll most likely start to feel frustrated or even stuck.

But if you entered this relationship with any trust issues from your past, it's important to make your healing a priority. And you're not going to be able to do that if you're looking to your partner to help you feel better.

So, how do you start to heal? By learning to trust yourself again. Tune in to this week's episode, where I share some tips (and examples) that you can start to apply to your life right now.

Because here's the deal: you reserve the right to change your mind at any time (and as often as you need).

But when you find yourself struggling with indecision, how do you know when you've finally made up your mind? Tune in to hear this week's episode where I share some personal experiences of going back and forth with decisions (and why it's okay to do so).
