Trust is earned over time through consistent honesty, accountability, and responsible actions.

Recovery isn’t just about staying sober — it’s also about repairing connections that were harmed along the way.

📖Healing relationships begins with acknowledging

past mistakes and taking responsibility without making excuses.

Open communication and transparency help demonstrate commitment to change.

While some relationships may take longer to repair, others may require setting healthy boundaries or even redefining roles to create safe and supportive connections.
