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.

I'd love to hear any feedback and thoughts on this episode! Please DM me on Instagram or drop a mail to [email protected].
