Listen Later

In this episode Reagan, a listener of this podcast, courageously steps forward to share her story. It's heartwarming to witness the incredible community we've built, where listeners like Reagan generously contribute their narratives in the hope of helping others. Your support truly makes this podcast exceptional. Reagan's journey is one of profound resilience, particularly in navigating the complexities of her relationship with her mother. From a young age, Reagan found herself shouldering immense responsibility due to her mother's struggle with addiction. The household dynamics were far from ordinary, with Reagan taking on the role of caregiver for her younger sisters and her mother, who, in the throes of addiction, grappled with anger and irresponsible behaviours. Living in the orbit of addiction is an experience fraught with challenges. Reagan's story serves as a beacon for those going through similar traumas, a reminder that you are not alone and there is power in realising that you have the choice and the opportunity to shape your life on your terms.
