In this episode, we are speaking with Theological Recovery Coach, Tanya Gioia.  Tanya knows that for every addict, 5 people are impacted.  Tanya has been through a lot of challenges you’re familiar with: striving for a career to make her whole; chasing a man to fulfill her; jumping unhealed into a second marriage; managing new babies and an addicted husband as well as her own codependency; and running her own business thinking enough money would “save” her. Finally, Tanya decided she deserved more in her life – from her life. She set out to learn everything, AA, Alanon, Celebrate Recovery, and Deep Therapy (EMDR), and decided to help heal others who share similar challenges by getting her professional coaching certification. Tanya works with women who want to finally heal their marriage and family whilst supporting their husbands through recovery from addiction. She uses her unique Dancing with Joy process to help them become the woman her husband cherishes and the mother who places God and love first to create a truly connected loving, and supportive family

In this episode, we discuss:

1) We dove into Tanya’s story, stats, and info about addiction and recovery, and how she decided to work on herself and make this her mission since she was raising someone else’s husband and wanted more for her life and to make an impact for others.  Addiction/substance abuse is rampant and literally a pandemic on its own, one that has a ripple effect of impacting 5 people for every person dealing with addiction.

2) We dive into the topic and understanding of what codependency means and how it was a turning point for Tanya as she realized that if her husband got well, she wouldn’t have a job.  His wellness became her full-time job, and that started the shift to realize that she had to start working on herself first in order for anything to change.
