They share their stories of how Ryan got introduced to gambling, how it escalated in his life and their marriage, and ultimately led to him seeking recovery. Kiki shares the amazing journey of a spouse impacted by her husband's gambling addiction and how she reached her rock bottom, leading to her own journey of recovery. This episode demonstrates what is possible when compulsive gamblers and loved ones jointly seek recovery and face this devasting disease openly, honestly, and lovingly.
