This is the very last podcast episode of the series and for the time being. Paula and Jo have decided to take a break from podcasting. It seemed appropriate to end on an episode about the journey of recovery from active use to abstinence. The only person that Paula and Jo wanted to interview was Harry, if you have been following the podcast, you'll know that Harry was the very first person Paula and Jo interviewed, so it seemed reminiscent of the first ever episode. Harry has now been in recovery since 18th March 2019, so around 18 months. He now enjoys better health and is sleeping a lot better, he now has a relationship with his children, lives in a nice place, he has his finances under control and he is able to engage with people and behave in a polite way. Many of these things were not possible when Harry was deep into his alcohol addiction. He has come a long way and is able to enjoy his hobbies and is actively involved with Alcoholics Anonymous on a daily basis, who support him in his recovery. The journey of recovery is one that has peaks and troughs, there is much to learn if you want to ensure you keep your sobriety and many stop and start over the years. Thankfully Harry is here to tell Jo and Paula about his experience, so let's hear how's he's got on since his interview last year.

Welcome to the second to last episode of the series. In this episode Paula and Jo are talking to Elliott about repairing broken relationships. Something that many families of drinkers find very difficult to do. When you live with or are affected by someone's drinking, you endure a lot of heartache and heartbreak. Watching someone you love destroy themselves with alcohol, being let down, lied to, manipulated and someone's physically and mentally abused. You can understand then why for some families, it seems like an impossible task to find forgiveness and when relationships break down, it can be a long process to repair them. Elliot joins in the conversation today to share his story of how he rebuilt the relationship with his Dad, after many years of alcohol abuse. He now enjoys a sober life and they have rekindled a new relationship.

Paula and Jo will be chatting to Christine in this episode, all about alcohol and spirituality. You might think the two couldn't be more opposite ends but when people are in recovery it's the ONE thing that can keep them sane. Lots of people have misconceptions about Alcoholics Anonymous and that the group is a cult and very much focused in religion. It isn't either of those things. People fear what they don't know. In this episode Jo and Paula will discuss with Christine how her drinking impacted on her spirituality, what the connection is between AA and spirituality and comparing the two as well as barriers to spirituality.

It's time for episode 29 of the series, and Paula and Jo are talking to Jane about bullying and how fitting in at school was at the very start of her relationship with alcohol.

Jane now helps stressed mums in Bournemouth, and globally via online platforms, to get Clear, Calm, and Confident, through effective online Life Coaching courses, Confidence Coaching sessions and Holistic Therapies.

For many children fitting in is really important and there are many ways they do that, for some, once they've chosen alcohol it can be the start of a longer relationship with it that they could have never foreseen.

In today's episode they'll be sharing how alcohol can be used as a crutch, and without realising it become something so much more. Looking at how available it is and how it's rarely frowned upon because it's so acceptable in society. No one starts of using alcohol because they want an addiction, it grows over time.

Today in the podcast Jo and Paula will be talking about what our home lives are missing and where we fill those gaps elsewhere. Jo and Paula will be chatting to Natasha about her experience of living with her Mum's various addictions. With lots of tension in her parents' marriage, Natasha assumed the role of the fixer. she had a lot of freedom as a child to do what she wanted, to her that was normal. As she reflects as an adult she can see how her anxiety manifested, worrying about not being collected from school was an example. As with many daughters of alcoholics, safety was an issue for Natasha, which continued into her adult life. She joined the military to avoid her home life, battled anxiety and lost her brother and Mum to Leukaemia. This is a typical example of how the life of a child of an alcoholic can be impacted with anxiety, feeling unloved and unsafe and searching for that in other ways. Let's find out more about how the army helped Natasha's journey.

Today in the podcast Jo and Paula will be talking about drink spiking.  In the interview Paul and Jo will be discussing what it is, what happens when someone is spiked, how do pubs and other drinking establishments react and what can we do to prevent this. Joining in the conversation with Paula and Jo today is Dawn Dines. Dawn has worked for Children’s Services, and for nearly 7 years was a residential social worker. This involvement fuelled her desire to help young people. The fears expressed to Dawn by parents and children about drink spiking motivated her to do something about the hugely under-reported crime. She came to realise it is a massive problem in which both the fear of being spiked, and the crime itself can impact on families. In the interview Dawn will be telling us which is the most popular way of spiking, and it's not the one you might think!

This episode Jo and Paula are talking to Lisa Boucher about co-dependency. This is a very large topic to discuss and affects most people that have lived with someone's drinking.

When people are co-dependent, their focus is on the drinker, much like the drinker's focus is on the alcohol. The parallels between the drinker and the family can be seen in lots of ways.

The discussion will cover what co-dependency is and how family members can so easily get caught up in it. As well as that, Jo, Paula and LIsa will be looking at those parallels, how it impacts on adult life and the family members after the drinker has sought recovery.

Lisa Boucher, Author of the Multi-Award Winning book, Raising the Bottom: Making Mindful Choices in a Drinking Culture. As a recovering alcoholic, she has been sober for thirty-one years and understands the complex nature of addiction and how childhood trauma is often at the root of what ails us. A registered nurse, Lisa believes that traditional healthcare does little to incorporate the mind-body connection, nor does our current culture appreciate the healing power of nature.

We open the first episode of series 4 with an interview about resentment. Many families and specifically daughters and sons of alcoholics hold resentment towards the drinker.  This is totally understand based on the chaos and drama they endure.  In this interview Paula and Jo talked to Jordan, he shares his story and insights into his own resentment to a father that was fairly absent in his life. It's the awareness he now has as an adult that has made him realise how much resentment he had. 

It's episode 24 and the last one of series 3. Jo and Paula are chatting to Lori about the very common struggle for families, people pleasing. When you grow up in a household where a parent drank too much, children can often do whatever they can to please their parent, to get their approval. All the while losing themselves along the way. If they're good and perfect, then maybe they won't drink. Sadly, it isn't about what anyone else does but as a child you just don't understand that. Lori Bruton lives in Western New York, is the mother of two grown sons and the adult child of an alcoholic. Lori is a passionate, faith-filled, fun-loving entrepreneur who shares her stories and adventures about love, travel, faith, fun, writing, essential oils, wellness, and living the Oola Lifestyle creating balance in the key areas of your life. She's inspiring, transforming, and enriches many lives. She teaches people how to tell their story, live their purpose, and bring their dreams to life. Let's find out how Lori has used her lived experience to cope with her people pleasing tendancies. Thanks for listening and remember the "Daughters of Alcoholics" closed Facebook group, we're in there ready to support you and offer you comfort in whichever way we can. Here are Lori's details:  She have a free gift for you:  It’s a 3-Step Transformation Guide that gives you actions steps to get started. http://bit.ly/3stepTransform You can find her book on Amazon at:  http://bit.ly/HoleToWhole, Visit my website at:  http://bit.ly/joinLori Connect with me on social media: www.facebook.com/loribrutonbiz www.instagram.com/loribrutonbiz www.linkedin.com/in/loribrutonbiz www.twitter.com/loribruton

How often is domestic abuse spoken about? The amount of negativity and shame that surrounds domestic abuse can mean that many do not speak up about it. They hide the fact they are victims. What impact does this have on the children in the relationship? The ones who may not be physically hurt although witness horrific situations and a breakdown in their parent’s mental health. What support do they gain as they transition through their teenage years and an adult when they are following similar patterns as it is all they know? 

Jenny is a business coach working with directors to ensure resilience and sustainable growth. She is passionate about supporting business owners who are survivors as they are often overlooked due to them seeming like they are a success and not in need of support. Jenny is a survivor of a lifetime of domestic abuse that transpired to an alcoholic parent who was suicidal. With Jenny’s experience of mental health, alcohol misuse and domestic abuse both as a child and an adult, she's the perfect person to interview about domestic abuse and how alcohol misuse can be missed.

Welcome to today's podcast episode, Jo and Paula wanted to look at how strong women can also be hugely vulnerable, and at times feel powerless. Just because someone appears strong in adversity, doesn't mean they won't find certain situations difficult. For some they become someone else and struggle to find their voice. They don't speak up and end up compromising themselves, this can go on for many years. Today Paula and Jo are joined by Dylis. Dylis is a successful business woman, having held senior positions in Barclays and running her own business for the past 20 years as an International Sales and Marketing leader, coach and speaker. She achieved this success despite her difficult childhood; living for many years with a father that drank too much, followed by a very very difficult first marriage. She indeed had many challenges to deal with. Dylis took on the role of an adult at a very early age and this role carried on into her adult life, having had to deal with physical and mental abuse. She used her work, her children and her positive Mindset to cope and become the woman she is today. Let's find out how Dylis's responsibilities led her to become a strong woman, yet at times vulnerable, dealing with similar difficulties faced by her own mother.

In episode 21 Jo and Paula are chatting to Suzannah Butcher about the impact of living with a parents drinking on your mental health. For many people living with a parent that struggles with drink isn't specific to their childhood, but runs well into their adult life. Often those impacted don't make the connection between their child experience and their adult challenges and strengths. This is one of the topics Jo is particularly interested in, there isn't a lot of evidence out there about this, although there are known characteristics of adult children of alcoholics. Suzannah is the adult child of an alcoholic. The impact of growing up with parental alcoholism had a profound effect on Suzannah’s mental health and she has struggled with complex PTSD and anxiety for most of her life. Suzannah now works as an EFT tapping practitioner and a mental health advocate, supporting and improving the mental health of others.

This episode is a conversation between your hosts Paula and Jo. Two sisters that grew up in the same house but perceived the experience very differently. Jo and Paula have talked openly together about their experiences, and have learnt how differently it impacted on them. Jo feeling more responsible and Paula being the protector.

In episode 18 Jo and Paula are chatting to Natasha Chant about mental health and alcohol misuse, including dual diagnosis. Natasha's a registered mental health nurse. She's worked in inpatient and community settings and currently works in a mental health drop in centre in Dorset. It's an out of hours' self-referral centre for anyone to access support for their own mental health or carers to access support for themselves. I have the privilege of working alongside peer specialists who offer their lived experience alongside clinical expertise to offer visitors space to focus on their strengths and consider how they can move forward safely to access other services. I'm passionate about providing a service for everyone in a self-defined crisis, this derives from my own personal experience of growing up living with adults with mental illness and wanting to empower others to feel they have some control over how they can move forward from their crisis. With Natasha's experience of mental health and alcohol misuse, she's the perfect person to interview about dual diagnosis and how alcohol misuse and mental health are so intrinsically linked.

Judith transforms lives through liberating voices.  She helps her clients recognise and release their emotional and energetic restrictions around self-expression, communication, and public speaking in their personal and professional lives.

Jo and Paula are very keen to learn more as giving someone their voice back is a powerful tool and one that should be treasured.

He has his own personal experiences to draw from which drive his passion to help and change the future lives of our young adults today.
