When an addict says they’re “in recovery,” partners naturally want to believe them. But what does real recovery actually look like and how is it different from simply checking the boxes?
In this candid and clinically rich conversation, Wendy Conquest, Dan Drake, and Tim Stein unpack the distinction between authentic recovery and what they call “pseudo-recovery” in sex addiction. They explore common recovery activities, meetings, sponsors, therapy, working the steps, reading workbooks, and reveal how someone can participate in all of them while still hiding, avoiding vulnerability, or staying emotionally disengaged.
Whether you’re an addict questioning your own level of engagement or a partner sensing something’s off, this episode offers clarity, compassion, and a call to go deeper.
