About this episode

Roxanna Johnson discusses the impact of addiction on spouses and the importance of surrender and grief in the recovery process.

In this episode of Unashamed Unafraid, we return with Roxanna Johnson for a second recording as she explains how spouses are changed by the “dance” of addiction, why both partners have parallel recovery paths, and how hope can emerge over years of work. She teaches surrender as releasing control to God, addressing fear and hypervigilance, and emphasizes grieving, emotional regulation, movement with breath, journaling, and a step-by-step surrender practice, urging those struggling with addiction to “see” and validate their spouse’s pain while seeking the God who knows their name. Roxanna is the author of Forgotten in the Battle with Sexual Addiction, The Journey of a Spouse. *Check out Roxy's book on Amazon To connect with Roxy, send her an email: roxyj16@gmail.com or visit her Website , Facebook and Instagram Make a donation and become an Outsider!
