Über diesen Titel
This is the episode I didn’t want to record — but had to.
The relapse didn’t happen all at once. It started slow. Quiet. Hidden behind the kind of silence that comes after you lose your kids and no one’s answering your messages.
In this episode, I walk through the final days before I called 911 on myself. The truth about what led me back to alcohol. The therapist who never even spoke to my children. The moment I realized I wasn’t just losing access to them — I was being erased.
This isn’t a polished story about recovery.
This is what collapse actually looks like when you’re an estranged parent trying to hold on.
No redemption arc. No performance. Just the raw moment where everything fell apart — and what happened next.
