If you'd like to learn more about ACA, you can check out the audio book I referenced here: The Complete ACOA Sourcebook (Audiobook)

In this episode I talk about Adult Children of Alcoholics & Dysfunctional Families which is a support group based in principles similar to those of Alcoholics Anonymous. I've been attending the support group because I've noticed many dysfunctional behaviors I have. I've been to about 4 meetings so far so I am very new to the program, but I've really resonated with everyone I've met and the stories they tell about their struggles.

I go on to discuss the ACA Framework:

• "The Inner Child"
• "The Critical Parent"
• "The Loving Parent"

And how the program uses these "parts" of us to explain our thought patterns and how to go about reprogramming them. I also discuss some of my own dysfunctional behaviors and how I'm going about navigating them, as well as the 12 Steps of the ACA Program.

Thank you for taking the time to listen! Feel free to reach out to me if you'd like to collaborate in any way. Also, always open to feedback on how to improve the podcast.
