Today on It’s Your Life (and this is mine) we have a chat with guest, Danielle about addiction. Danielle was super vulnerable, sharing her story of being an adult child of alcoholic parents, the trauma it caused growing up and the PTSD faced to this current day. I never hear anyone openly talking about addiction, victims of addicts or anything in between so I hope this episode can help someone out there. I would have felt so reassured hearing this conversation 5 years ago. We also touched on Danielle’s abortion story too.
