What happens to us in relationships when there is substance abuse? When we numb and cope with alcohol or drugs? How do we behave in intimate spaces with people we love? How is our sexuality impacted?
In this episode, David Marion is going to give us some male insight into his own sex life and way of “relationshipping” over the course of his substance abuse journey and recovery journey. David and I discuss how substances ruined the ability to have strong secure relationships, the type of people he attracted, and other wisdom around pain, shame, and childhood trauma. Lend me your ears y’all — this is a raw and honest conversation with a man who has done the work (continues to do the work) and is sharing his experience.
David is 13 years sober, and is a certified interventionist and recovery coach, author of the book, “Addiction Rescue: The No-BS Guide To Recovery,” public speaker and advocate for all suffering from substance use.
