Did you marry the man of your dreams, only to find alcohol seeping into every part of your family? As a woman of faith committed to your vows, do you struggle to walk out your convictions amidst the chaos and confusion devastating your marriage? Do you wish you had someone to confide in without judgment, consequences, or the well-meaning but worst advice ever? Despite your relentless efforts, do you feel betrayed, stuck in a cycle, praying for a breakthrough, and wondering if things will really be okay? Same here.
In this podcast, you will find hope regardless of your current situation. Each week, your spirit will be lifted as you recognize you are NOT in this battle alone. You will come to know that only through Him can you learn to model a much-needed peaceful presence to your children, whose little hearts are also wondering if things will be okay. My mission is to share my experience, strength, and hope with women like me who are praying for a breakthrough. The Lord’s light shines even in the darkness of addiction, and the darkness cannot overcome it.
I am a wife, a homeschooling momma, and a woman who has learned that nothing is impossible for God. I sometimes wish that I hadn’t had to learn all of this while enduring circumstances I would rather not have gone through, but would my faith be this strong without the trials? I laugh thinking that while you listen, you might mistakenly assume that I have it “all figured out,” because if I am honest, I still can’t figure out how to keep track of my phone most days. However, I have found a peace that surpasses understanding, and I want to share everything God has taught me with you as you navigate this road. Applying the Bible to my situation allows me to shift my eyes off the problem and refocus on my God who can redeem and restore otherwise hopeless situations. Psalms 55:22 tells us, “Cast your burdens on the Lord and he will sustain you. He will not permit the righteous to be moved.”
In the eye of the storm, it is hard to have the right perspective when you are walking on eggshells every day, trying to keep your family together! I suspect I am not alone here, and if you can relate to anything I have said, then this podcast is for you. Nothing changes if nothing changes, right? :) So, if you are ready to experience a breakthrough, listen up. You do not have to do this alone, and you didn’t find this podcast by accident.
Take a deep breath, even when it seems impossible. Be willing to trust that God can do more than you even imagine, right where you are today, which is so far from where you wanted to be. I know you are running everywhere and doing everything for everyone, but THIS moment of rest is for you! Allow me to serve you a little Peace on the Rocks.

Ep 41 Struggling To Communicate in an Alcoholic Marriage? ONE Boundary You Can Set Today
Have you ever found yourself drawn into a heated or emotional conversation with your husband after he’s been drinking—only to regret it the next day when he doesn’t remember, denies it happened, or twists your words? In this episode of Wife on the Rocks, we’ll talk about why refusing to engage in conversation when alcohol is involved is not cold or controlling—it’s wise, protective, and biblical. Learn about the ONE boundary that I had to set in our home when addiction was taking over everything! Come along on this journey where co-dependency develops boundaries to deal with alcoholism in a way that can protect in the hard moments of gaslighting and conversations that spiral quickly!
You’ll learn:
Why alcohol changes how people hear and process words.
The logic behind disengaging (you wouldn’t debate with someone who’s not in their right mind).
Why engaging feels like betraying yourself—and how to stop.
What to do instead of arguing or trying to reason.
How faith and boundaries can coexist without shame or guilt.
If you’ve ever felt stuck between silence and chaos, desiring to have a close relationship rooted in healthy communication, but instead wind up in an argument that goes nowhere, this episode will help you choose peace—and know that walking away doesn’t mean giving up. It is an essential boundary at times to protect your heart.
