You’ve stopped the behavior. You’re going to the meetings. You’re doing everything the books and podcasts say to do. So why doesn’t your partner trust you yet?
In this honest and challenging conversation, we talk with Roland Cochrun, a recovery advocate and founder of SuccessfulAddict.com, about the biggest blind spots in early recovery—and why checking the right boxes doesn’t guarantee real change.
Roland shares his personal experience, the research behind what actually works, and why recovery must be more than just avoiding relapse. If you’ve ever felt stuck, discouraged, or unsure whether your progress is enough, this episode offers a much-needed reset.
If this episode resonated with you, please share it with someone who might need it. And don’t forget to leave a review—we’d love to hear how this podcast is supporting your healing journey!
