In this episode, I sit down with Dennis for a raw conversation about alcoholism, accountability, and breaking generational patterns. Dennis opens up about his relationship with alcohol and the moment he realized he wasn't to blame for how it began, but he is responsible for how it ends.

We dive into the idea of alcoholism as something that gets passed down, like a bundle of wood handed from one generation to the next. And Dennis shares the powerful shift that happened when he imagined looking down at his future children and asking himself: "Do I want to pass this on or don't I?"

This conversation goes beyond personal struggle. It explores what it really means to interrupt a family legacy, to take accountability without shame, and to consciously choose a different future. Because when one person stands up and says the cycle stops here, it doesn't just change a life, it changes an entire lineage.

If generational alcoholism has touched your family, or you're working to build a different path for the next generation, this episode will speak to you in a deep way.
