There is a conversation you have been avoiding. You know it needs to happen. You have rehearsed it a thousand times in your head. And every time you get close, the fear wins and you push it off another week.
Coming Clean is a complete guide for the man who is finally ready to have that conversation. To tell his partner, his family, or someone he loves that he has been carrying an addiction in secret. It is the conversation that changes everything, and this is the workbook that walks you through it step by step.
Grounded in the therapeutic literature on disclosure, drawing on the work of Dr Omar Minwalla, Stefanie Carnes, and Bill Bercaw, this 43-page workbook is built around one central premise: that disclosure done well is the single most important act in long-term recovery, and disclosure done badly can destroy years of progress. This guide exists to help you do it well.
Six full modules take you from the decision to disclose all the way through to the rebuilding of trust in the months that follow. Written honestly, without moralising, without religious framing, and without the false optimism of most self-help material. It meets you exactly where you are.
Designed specifically for men who:
- Are living a double life and cannot carry it any longer.
- Have decided to disclose, but do not know how to do it.
- Have tried to disclose before and had it go badly.
- Want a framework rather than a script to memorise.
- Need to prepare their recovery to survive the days after.

Courage. Honesty. Repair. In that order.
How It Works
Prepare → Speak → Recalibrate → Rebuild
You do the writing work in modules 1 through 3. You have the conversation in module 4. You survive the days that follow with the tools in module 5. You rebuild trust slowly, honestly, using the framework in module 6.
Not a script to memorise. Not a promise that it will be easy. A structured, honest guide through the hardest conversation of your life.
