Ep 30 How Did It Get This Bad? Setting Boundaries In An Alcoholic Marriage Broke My Heart!
Update: 2025-07-30
Description
There’s a specific kind of heartbreak that comes when you realize the life you dreamed of isn’t the life you’re living—and that setting a boundary might be the only way to protect your peace, your children, or your sanity.
In this deeply personal episode, I share my own experience of grieving what I thought family life would look like—and the painful but necessary process of accepting that I had to set boundaries in an addicted marriage in order to stay grounded in reality, not fantasy.
You’ll hear:
The emotional weight that comes before setting a boundary
What it’s like to pray and wrestle with God before taking action
How it feels to be forced into choices you never wanted to make
The internal tug-of-war between loyalty to your marriage and protecting your children
If you’ve ever asked, “How did it get this bad?” or “Why do I have to be the one to draw the line?”—this episode is for you.
💌 If you’re feeling torn about where to draw the line, you’re not alone. Email me at hello@wifeontherocks.com with your question—I may include it in a future episode.
And if you need personal support to find clarity and peace, my one-on-one summer coaching sessions may be a great fit.
