Breaking Generational Chains and Fostering Real Connections

A pint. A photograph. A father’s approval.

What if your first drink wasn’t about the alcohol at all—but about being seen?

In this powerful episode, I reflect on a single, blurry photo from my childhood. I was 14, holding a pint, trying to become a man. But what I really wanted was my dad’s love.

This story isn’t just mine. It’s a quiet legacy passed down from father to son, mother to daughter—wrapped in lager, silence, and the Liquid Lie.

You’ll see how one pint became a shortcut to manhood, how alcohol stood in for connection, and how we can lead our kids differently.

If you’ve ever wondered where your drinking story really began… this episode is for you.
