Description

This was an extremely hard episode to record. It focuses on my experience of being in a relationship with a heroin addict. How it unfolded and how it changed me.

I hope it helps because I know there are so many women out there with someone in their lives who is struggling with addiction.

In this episode:

• Entering the relationship despite knowing he was likely to use again
• Why I was drawn to trying to "save" him
• The nature of our relationship and what it was like
• The moment things became clear and I decided to leave
• How the experience impacted me and what I learnt
• How society is conditioned to turn a blind eye to addictions
• How therapy and healing helps us recognise our own repeated patterns quicker

My retreat is just around the corner, 7-9th June, in the magical lands Donegal. If you're craving rest or feeling stuck in life, join us to pause, recharge and reflect.
