Ep 27 Summer & Self-Sabotage: Does Your Husband Start Meaningless Fights For An Excuse To Drink?

Ep 27 Summer & Self-Sabotage: Does Your Husband Start Meaningless Fights For An Excuse To Drink?

Summer is supposed to be a time of fun, family, and freedom — but for Christian wives of alcoholics, events like the 4th of July, barbecues, and neighborhood gatherings can catch you off guard with behavior not anticipated. Expecting Family Time but your husband self sabotages in order to drink and you end up alone or with all the kids without him?

In this heartfelt episode of Wife on the Rocks, we’re talking about the real effects of alcohol in marriage — not just on the alcoholic husband, but on the wife and the family unit as a whole. From grill outs where he’s the only one drinking, to family plans that suddenly unravel into chaos, to fireworks nights you end up attending alone with the kids… we get into all of it.

You’ll hear:

  • How summer events often reveal painful patterns in alcoholic behavior

  • The emotional toll of being pushed away so he can drink in peace while you carry the family.

  • The subtle (and not-so-subtle) sabotage that ruins what should be family time

  • Why choosing not to attend certain events can actually be wise

  • What it looks like to reclaim peace, even when your heart is breaking

And most importantly, we talk about how you can walk this hard road with strength, with faith, and without losing yourself. Even when it hurts, even when you’re crying on the drive to the fireworks — you are not alone.
