Eric and Dave take us inside the reality many couples face: the tension at home, the lack of trust, and the quiet distance that replaces connection. From hidden addictions and secrecy to the painful process of rebuilding trust “one drop at a time,” they expose how recovery isn’t just about quitting a behavior… It’s about becoming a safe person again.

Eric sits down with Jeremy Hinote, a counselor and founder of Savannah River Counseling, to unpack what happens when couples try to rebuild intimacy after addiction. What seems like “getting back to normal” can quickly turn into something deeper… learning how to feel safe again.

In this deeply inspiring episode of The Recovery Vow Podcast… Eric sits down with Tanner Smith (@tannerwiththetism) and his parents, Nicci and Mark, a family whose journey through autism, faith, and resilience has transformed not just their lives, but thousands of others. What began as fear, uncertainty, and a life-altering diagnosis turned into a story of purpose, growth, and unexpected impact.
