I wrote a COA book and paid the price! - Arabella Byrne
In this episode of the COA Podcast, we welcome Arabella Byrne, author of In the Blood, a powerful and deeply personal exploration of intergenerational alcoholism. Arabella shares her journey of uncovering the hidden impact of addiction within families, how it shapes identities, and the path toward healing.
Arabella's memoir shared how her mother and she recovered from alcoholism within weeks of each other, having been caught in a long intergenerational spiral of addiction.
Arabella is also a prolific journalist on issues of children of alcoholics and also an ambassador of Nacoa UK
Join us as we discuss the complexities of growing up with alcoholism in the family, the patterns that can persist across generations, and the importance of breaking the cycle. Arabella also reflects on her writing process, the emotional toll of revisiting family history, and the hope she wishes to offer to others affected by a parent's drinking.
