Interview with My Dad, the Alcoholic


Listen Later

I interviewed my Dad.

He's an alcoholic.

I've had a ton of pain and neglect from childhood because of him.

His parenting has marked my life.

But he has also chosen to confront his biggest failures and pain and although our connection is a work in progress, I have so much respect for the humility that he lives his life with.

My dad was pretty distant, disconnected, disassociated for a lot of my childhood.

I felt like I was always the problem that needed to be fixed.

I always felt like there was something wrong with me and I felt like nobody will ever love me for me...the authentic "me".

The process I've walked through with my parents and my father has been a redemptive one.

And who better to tell this story than my father...and me.
