Welcome to the very first episode of Rooting for You — a podcast about recovery, marriage, faith, and the messy middle of life.
In this episode, we talk about:
•Why we started this podcast (hint: we’ve been through it)
•What “recovery” really means (and why it’s not just for addiction)
•The real reason we all develop symptoms like burnout, people-pleasing, control, and isolation
•Why recovery is not a punishment — it's an invitation
This is for the ones trying to heal while still holding it all together.
You don’t have to fix yourself before you begin.
We’re not experts. We’re just real ones.
And we’re rooting for you. 🖤
