Being in a relationship of any kind with an addict or alcoholic causes an emotional, physical, and psychological rollercoaster. It’s crucial that you have BOUNDARIES! My latest on demand master mini course lays the foundation of how to set and hold a boundary with an addict. You will get the exact step by step formula and the insight, wisdom, and guidance you need to set a boundary and FOLLOW THROUGH.

Learn:

  • Why boundaries fail
  • Common boundary mistakes with an addict or alcoholic
  • How to get massive clarity around what you want, deserve, and are no longer    willing to tolerate.
  • How to communicate with clarity, empathy, and strength.
  • How to follow through
  • The exact language to use with an addict or alcoholic
  • How to stop being manipulated, gaslit, and guilted out of your boundaries
  • How to create a healthy, peaceful environment for you and your family.

If you’ve ever asked your friends or family, I’m sure they’ve told you to forget it.

They probably said it was a lost cause, told you to give up, cut your losses and walk away.

But, that’s hard for you.

You love this person. You’ve invested time and energy and you know that if they could just “get it” their life would be so much better and you could be a happy family.

In other words, you want to believe a relationship with an addict or alcoholic can work.

And that’s why you’re here.

The truth is any relationship can work if both people are moving towards a mutual goal of communication, commitment, kindness and care.  

And people in recovery can make amazing partners.

Unlike many others, people in recovery are encouraged to look at their own behavior, take responsibility and change the things they have control over. So, if they’re working a solid recovery program, things can work.

However, what if they aren’t? What it they’re in and out of recovery? What if they continually relapse?

Can you deal with that? In the video, I give 3 strategies to help you make your relationship work.
