Should I Stay or Leave?

How to find clarity when your partner is struggling with addiction or recovery.

A free 60-minute live workshop with Amanda

When things are going well, you wonder how you could possibly leave.

When things get hard again, you wonder how you can possibly stay.

And you’re left trying to work out what to do.

In this free workshop, I’ll help you understand why you’re feeling so stuck and share a practical framework you can use to approach the decisions in front of you - one small, good decision at a time.

There’s a lot inside “should I stay or leave?”

There’s love.

Hope.

The good days and the really hard and heartbreaking ones.

Your children. Finances. Your partner’s recovery. Your own wellbeing.

The life you’ve built together - and questions about the life ahead.

And when you’ve spent months or years watching, worrying, adjusting and trying to work out what happens next, it can become incredibly difficult to know what you should do.

Finding clarity can take time.

And that time can still belong to you.

Because there are decisions before THE decision.

And those are where we’re going to begin.

In 60 minutes, we will…

🫶 Make sense of why you feel so stuck

Understand some of what’s sitting underneath the indecision, so you can bring more clarity and compassion to what you’re experiencing.

🫶 Look at a different way to move forward

Learn how your values can become a compass for the decisions that are yours to make — even while parts of life remain uncertain.

🫶 Actually practice it together

We’ll use my practical decision-making framework to work through one small, everyday decision.

So you can leave knowing how to start making one small, good decision at a time - rebuilding trust with yourself and living your life while you find your way through the bigger question.

Your life is happening now

The bigger decision can take time.

And while you’re finding your answer, you can begin:

Listening to what feels like a genuine yes.
Paying attention to what feels like a no.
Considering your needs, wants and preferences.
Pausing and choosing how you want to respond.
Making decisions based on what matters to you.

These choices may seem small.

But they’re how you start putting yourself back into your own life.

Because another 12 months will pass.

And your life can be moving forward while you find your answer.

CRAFT Informed

Drug and Alcohol Trained Facilitator

I was a corporate accountant - university, professional certifications and a career I was proud of.

I was smart. Capable. A problem-solver. And then addiction entered my marriage and my life.

I spent years navigating the confusion, exhaustion and complexity that can come with loving someone struggling with addiction - including discovering that some of the “help” available to families wasn’t particularly helpful.

Today, through Addiction Makes Three, I work globally with people navigating addiction in their families, emotional burnout and the quiet struggles that can come with loving someone who’s struggling.

I bring more than nine years of personal and professional experience, lived experience and practical, evidence-based tools to this work.

Because the person struggling with addiction matters. And so do the people who love them.
