In this week’s episode of The Alcohol ReThink Podcast Patrick is joined by Shanenn Bryant. Shanenn is a certified Life Coach and host of the podcast: Your Top Self. As an adult child of an alcoholic, she has a unique experience to share with us during this episode.

During this episode, Shanenn shares her experience of growing up in a household where her father was an alcoholic and how it impacted her as she got older.

Some of the other topics we covered during this call are:

- How as children we can internalise traumatic events in our lives, as a way to keep us safe.
- How feeling abandoned as a child led to jealousy in relationships and low self-worth
- The laundry list
- The power of inner child work in therapy
- How the habit of alcohol misuse can get passed from one generation to the next
- The unconscious conditioning of alcohol approval through clothing
- Whatever happens in our lives happens for a reason
- The influence we have on our children - drinking or not
- The stories we tell ourselves - How to reframe our past for our future
