This week, I’m sharing something special with the whole Recover Your Soul community — an episode that originally aired on the Bonus Podcast back in June. The Bonus Podcast is where we take a deeper dive into Soul Recovery, with spiritual book studies, guest conversations, and real-life reflections inspired by Al-Anon, metaphysics, and the healing journey within. If you’ve never tuned in, I wanted you...

In this week’s episode, I sit with a heartfelt question from our community—how do we hold someone accountable without slipping into control and codependence?—and we look honestly at what true support really is, including whether asking a spouse to “prove” sobriety crosses a line; from a Soul Recovery perspective, we remember that we are powerless over other people and powerful within ourselves, so in...

So many of us have spent our lives trying to earn love, approval, and belonging by shape-shifting into what we think others need us to be. We become people-pleasers, fixers, and emotional caretakers—losing ourselves in the process. In this episode of the Recover Your Soul Podcast, we explore what it really means to break free from codependency and control, and how the Soul Recovery process helps us c...

If you're feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or completely drained from trying to hold everything, and everyone together I get it, I was once there too. The truth is, constantly fixing, managing, and rescuing those around us doesn’t bring peace... it creates more suffering. In this episode, I share what I’ve learned on my own Soul Recovery path about how the compulsion to help and control stems from ...

When someone you love is struggling—emotionally, mentally, or through addiction—it’s natural to want to help, to fix, to make things better. But what happens when trying to save them begins to cost you your own peace? This episode of the Recover Your Soul Podcast explores the powerful Soul Recovery principle of detaching without abandoning yourself. Being okay when others aren’t doesn’t mean disconne...

Before Soul Recovery, I didn’t even know what my yes or no was—let alone how to honor it. In this episode, we explore the essential role of boundaries in your healing journey. Through the lens of Soul Recovery, boundaries aren’t rigid walls—they’re living, breathing expressions of self-love. They allow us to protect our energy, express our preferences, and release the need to control others. When we ...

In this episode I am talking about addiction—not just the big, obvious ones like alcohol, but the subtle, often socially accepted habits like sugar, scrolling, shopping, or constant busyness that keep us disconnected from our wholeness. Even after more than seven years of sobriety from alcohol, I’m still looking at behaviors and uncovering patterns that no longer serve me… and that’s what Soul Recove...

Have you noticed that old wounds and limiting beliefs showing up lately? You’re not alone. Many of us on the spiritual path are feeling an intense surfacing of our deepest shadows right now — and although it can feel unsettling, it’s actually a blessing in disguise.

In this episode, I invite you to see these resurfacing patterns for what they truly are: an invitation. We’re in a time of energetic shif...

The greatest power we have is the choice to shift our perception. Before we discover Soul Recovery, so many of us live in a constant loop of “why is this happening to me?”, feeling like victims of our circumstances — whether it’s our family, our health, or the state of the world. 

In this heartfelt episode, I share how my own journey taught me that while we’re powerless over what happens outside of us...

The words we speak and the thoughts we hold aren’t just passing moments—they’re the seeds we plant in the garden of our lives. Whether we realize it or not, we’re always creating. Soul Recovery reminds us that healing begins when we become aware of how we're using our voice, both in the silence of our own mind and in the way we speak to those around us.

In this episode, I invite you to take a dee...

If you’ve ever struggled with codependency, people-pleasing, or the heaviness of wanting to fix what isn’t yours to fix. Have you ever wanted something so badly for someone you love… but knew deep down you couldn’t make them choose it? That ache — the one we feel when we care so deeply — is where Soul Recovery begins.

In this episode, I’m reflecting on Mel Robbins’ Let Them Theory and why it resonates...

Turning the attention to ourselves and our own healing is the greatest gift we can give to anyone who's recovering from addiction or other life challenges. When someone we love enters treatment, it's an opportunity to focus on our own Soul Recovery and allow them to fully embrace their own journey of recovery.

• Understanding that our loved ones' readiness for treatment is an ...

In this episode, we take a deep and compassionate look at the hidden emotion of resentment—the bitterness, hurt, and injustice we carry long after a moment has passed. Resentment can quietly shape our relationships, thoughts, and inner peace without us even realizing it. Through the lens of Soul Recovery, I explore how this emotion often masks deeper wounds like grief, abandonment, and unmet expectat...
