How To Navigate Sobriety if Your Partner Still Drinks

June 26, 2023

Meet Suzanne

Suzanne is the host of the popular sobriety podcast, The Sober Mom Life, and is also a sobriety and lifestyle influencer at My Kind of Sweet. Suzanne quit drinking more than 4 years ago and has found freedom from moderation, a message she proudly shares with the world. When she's not glamorizing sobriety, Suzanne enjoys spending her time with her 3 kids, her husband, and her dog, Georgia, all while reheating her coffee, until she eventually forgets it in the microwave.

Today my Mom, our resident mental health expert, is here to talk about one of the most common questions that comes up in this community: How do I navigate sobriety if my spouse still drinks.

I’ll share my story of how I navigated this tricky transition. Then, we’ll talk about how to set loving boundaries, how to continue on your sobriety journey even if your partner isn’t following directly in your footsteps, and what steps to take if your partner has deeper dependency and addiction issues.
