On our last installment of the Addiction series, we receive a call from a fellow podcaster, Carmen from Bicoastal Crime Podcast!!! (CHECK THEM OUT AND FOLLOW!) Carmen not only brings forth her addiction story though a female's perspective, but also through a second generational lens. She speaks about her initial trauma/ survival story that initiated her codependency with alcohol, and the journey that codependency lead her down. However, through realization and acceptance of her own addiction, and with an understanding familial and friend support system she explains how she has overcome many obstacles to achieve nearly 1 year of sobriety and her plans for the anniversary. Torie and Grizzi discuss all the first hand stories in a summary and final explain why it was important to discuss such a overwhelming yet crucial topic at length.
