Katie and Chris Bowick believe healing begins when people stop hiding their struggles and start telling the truth.
Co-authors of Coloring Outside the Lines: A Love Story in the Gray of Addiction, Recovery & Redemption, Katie and Chris share a deeply personal journey through addiction, codependency, broken trust, and the long road toward rebuilding a marriage. Their story stands apart because it is told from both perspectives, offering an honest look at the pain, hope, and transformation experienced by each partner.
Chris opens up about the hidden reality of addiction behind professional success and outward achievement, while Katie gives voice to the often unseen experience of loving someone through addiction, navigating fear, uncertainty, resilience, and faith. Together, they reveal that recovery is not just about sobriety. It is about restoring relationships, rediscovering identity, and learning to trust again.
Today, Katie and Chris speak and write about addiction, marriage, faith, recovery, and personal transformation, helping individuals, couples, and families realize they are not alone in their struggles. Their openness creates space for conversations that many people desperately need but rarely feel safe enough to have.
Their message is simple: healing is rarely perfect, rarely predictable, and never easy, but with honesty, courage, and commitment, redemption is always possible.

Authors
Katie and Chris Bowick are the co-authors of Coloring Outside the Lines: A Love Story in the Gray of Addiction, Recovery & Redemption, a dual-perspective memoir that became a #1 New Release in five categories during its first week.
From the outside, they appeared to have built a successful life together, thriving careers, a growing business, and a strong marriage. Behind closed doors, however, they were navigating addiction, codependency, broken trust, family conflict, and the painful realities that nearly tore their relationship apart.
What makes their story unique is that they tell it from both sides. Chris shares his experience as a successful entrepreneur whose addiction hid beneath achievement, ambition, and outward success. Katie reveals the often-overlooked reality of loving someone through addiction, the fear, hypervigilance, resentment, faith, and hope that existed alongside it.
Today, Katie and Chris speak openly about addiction, recovery, faith, marriage, codependency, personal transformation, and the gray areas of healing that rarely fit into simple narratives. Through their writing and conversations, they help others feel less alone while offering an honest look at what it takes to rebuild trust, identity, and connection after life falls apart.
Their message is simple: healing is possible, but it rarely happens the way we expect.
