Learning how to manage relationships in sobriety takes a lot of TLC. At the advice of her sponsor Danielle learned to love her husband over and over again to accept him for who he was and his role in their marriage.
One tool she used to help her communication was putting things in writing so she could look at what she was saying and also get consultation before she shared it with her husband.
Danielle shared some specific things she needed in her marriage after she had stable recovery to have a fulfilling and supportive marriage.
Danielle is a member of the Confident Sober Women Facebook Group where you can reach out to her anytime. She is also on Instagram @oneandonlydg or oneandonlydg.com

And if you haven't read my memoir, grab a copy today and maybe a second one for a friend. There is so much hope in recovery, and I shared my story so raw and vulnerably so that others would know they aren't alone and that there is a way to live well, manage relationships, parent your kids, and have a healthy body, all while staying sober. Grab a copy of Recovering in Recovery: The Life-Changing Joy of Sobriety wherever books are sold.
