Summary
 Sheri and Matt Salis just wanted a regular life–regular marriage, regular careers, a regular house, and happy kids. Instead, they lived a life of lies and terror as they struggled with Matt’s alcoholism and emotional abuse. Unfortunately, their experience is quite regular. Sheri and Matt talk to other experts, to roundtable panels, and to each other. No subjects are off limits: The trauma of active addiction, the pain of recovery, the impact of emotional abuse, the “should I stay or should I go” question, breaking the cycles for the kids, and both emotional and physical intimacy. Matt Salis is a behavioral health writer and researcher with over a decade of experience studying addiction and emotional abuse, and a master’s degree in sexual health. He is a leading expert on the impact of addiction and emotional abuse on intimacy in committed partnerships. Sheri Salis is the hero of their story, and the star of the Untoxicated Podcast.

    Ep373 – Expectations and Demands in a Relationship
    9 Nov 2026

    Sheri and Matt have a long list of things they expect from each other. Very few of the expectations are demands. Many expectations have developed over time, and many have been earned. But gone are the days when they think they deserve certain treatment, and they’ve both learned that demanding behaviors from another human is harmful, and a waste of time. There is a big difference between expectations and demands.
