In this powerful episode of the Paul Steele Podcast, Paul sits down with Bill O’Donnell and Teddy Roman to uncover the real root causes of relapse in addiction recovery. We go deep into what triggers relapse, how to build emotional resilience, and why self-awareness and spiritual growth are essential to long-term recovery.

We also dive into the critical topic of relationships in recovery — especially the importance of seeing and acknowledging your partner’s pain and how to ask about your spouse’s hurt with empathy and humility. If you’re in a relationship while walking the path of recovery, this conversation is for you.

Whether you’re new to sobriety, in long-term sobriety or recovery, or a loved one supporting someone in recovery, this episode will hit home.
