Let’s talk about one of the most common questions I get: “How do I quit drinking… if my husband still drinks?”
If you’ve ever felt alone in your sobriety journey because your partner isn’t on the same path—you’re not crazy, and you’re definitely not the only one.
In this episode, I’m sharing my own experience navigating this dynamic and offering real-life advice for how to stay committed to your alcohol-free life even when your spouse still drinks.
Inside this episode, we cover: 🧠 Why owning your sobriety is the most powerful thing you can do 🚩 The difference between a “take it or leave it” drinker and a partner who may have their own struggles 💬 Tips for communicating without creating conflict 🛑 Setting boundaries with love (and without guilt) 💛 The importance of support systems—especially when your home environment feels tricky 📣 And how The Alcohol-Free Blueprint can help guide you through this chapter
You don’t have to wait for your partner to get on board in order to choose a better life for you.
You’re allowed to do this your way. You’re allowed to feel all the feelings. And I promise—you’re not doing it alone.
