Sarah Michaud's Nugget-Recovery from Codependency and Addiction

Dr. Sarah Michaud hops on the podcast to talk recovery, share her story and specifically get into codependency and how to get into the solution. Thanks for listening!Her website is here: drsarahmichaud.comI’m Dr. Sarah Michaud, a clinical psychologist, author, and co-host of Leaving CrazyTown. For more than thirty years, I’ve worked in the field of addiction and codependency recovery, blending professional expertise with the hard-earned lessons of my own journey. Sober from alcohol and cocaine since 1984, I know firsthand the pain of addiction—and the freedom that comes with recovery.My path hasn’t been linear. After decades of sobriety, I was confronted with my husband’s relapse and the desperate behaviors that often arise when we try to save someone else. That experience forced me to face my own truth and ultimately led to a life I never could have imagined—one rooted in authenticity, peace, and connection rather than chaos and exhaustion.I share that story in my book, Co-Crazy: One Psychologist’s Recovery from Addiction and Codependency, which serves as both memoir and manual for anyone seeking liberation from destructive patterns. I also write for The Sober Curator, exploring sobriety, mental wellness, and sober pop culture with clarity and wit. And on Leaving CrazyTown, my YouTube show with my friend Finn Allen, we dive into recovery, resilience, and relationships—with plenty of humor along the way.This site is a hub for my work—whether you’re here for insights, encouragement, or just a reminder that you’re not alone. My mission is to help you find your voice, set healthier boundaries, and create the life you’ve always wanted.So fasten your seatbelt—we’re leaving CrazyTown, and there’s a brighter road ahead.
