In this month's Reads and Recovery episode, I review Drunk Mom: A Memoir by Jowita Bydlowska. This memoir brings us into the chaotic, isolating world of a mother struggling with alcoholism. As I explore Jowita's journey, I can’t help but reflect on the parallels between her story and the experiences I faced in my own active addiction.
I talk about repeated relapse, the brutal honesty that’s needed to rebuild our lives and our relationships, and the courage it takes to fight for sobriety when the odds feel stacked against us. This book pulls no punches.
Join me as I share how this memoir resonates with my own experiences and the lessons we can all take away from Jowita’s story.
