Failure isn’t an accident. It’s a pattern.

In this solo episode of Harder Than Life, Kelly Siegel shares hard-earned lessons about betrayal, self-abandonment, alcohol, boundaries, and why we often repeat the same wounds in different environments.

This episode explores shame versus identity, how no boundaries equal no respect, and why sobriety exposes what numbing hides.

If you keep meeting the same villain, this episode explains why — and how to break the cycle.
