#259 Ash & April - His Sobriety, Her Side Of The Story
This might just be one of our most emotional episodes yet.
We’ve heard Ash’s sobriety story - the pain, the struggles and the voices in his head but today we hear from the person who was there through all of it: April.
From their binge-drinking teenage years, through their 20's and into parenthood, to Ash making the life-changing decision to give alcohol up in his 30's, April has had a front-row seat.
She opens up about what she did, what she didn’t do and what she’s learned about supporting someone through addiction without losing themselves in the process.
It’s a raw, honest and incredibly vulnerable conversation that gives us a whole new look at their relationship, built on love, trust, honesty and a whole lot of hope.
There are some seriously powerful takeaways about marriage, parenting, addiction and what it really means to stand beside someone when life gets hard.
We hope you love this one as much as we do.
