Welcome to Not My Baggage, the podcast for everyone who didn’t check into rehab—but somehow got emotionally enrolled. If you’ve ever cried in the parking lot of a treatment center, Googled “how to stop enabling without sounding like a bitch,” or lied to your boss and your mom to cover for someone else’s spiral—
this is your Terminal.

This isn’t another “how I got sober” podcast.
Other shows want the celebrity. We want the person who cleaned up after them.
Other podcasts want the celeb who got sober - we want their families. 
We want the wife, the husband, the best friend, the exhausted sibling, the parent who co-signed the lease and regretted it for a decade.

Hosted by Samantha Martin who for over 20+ years paid for her addict husband’s multiple rehabs, sober livings, the guitars and cars she KNEW would keep him sober THIS time —slept with money in her bra to keep it safe, made more "geographics" to save him - than Dora the Explorer on a double espresso...
all while just trying keep her own shit together herself with Lupus and trying to run a PR firm. 

This show is what happens when the emotional support people finally get to talk.
Loudly. With sarcasm and receipts.

Each week, we unpack the emotional carry-ons of addiction: betrayal, grief, rage, codependency, fake forgiveness, false hope, the lies we can't believe we believe and real fatigue that would put Ambien to shame. 

You’ll hear from the family members of public figures who are just like us and love just like us, everyday survivors who haven't completely lost their minds,
and experts from shrinks to money managers to lawyers to solid advice you can take or leave. At least it's advise for US about US. 

We get it. 
You’re not alone. You’re just burned the f*ck out.

Welcome aboard. This is no longer...
