“The Other Side of Addiction: Amy’s Inspiration and Encouragement for Daughters, Wives, and Mothers”

 

Seth sits down with Amy, a survivor of generational addiction, for a heart-wrenching yet hopeful conversation about growing up in chaos, breaking toxic cycles, and finding peace without a single drink. This episode reveals:  

 

🔹 Finding her mom unalive at 13 and why she calls it "the best-case scenario"

🔹 How Amy’s mom used her as a pawn, the years of gaslight, and her attempt to abandon her at the Salvation Army  

🔹 The effects of being a child of an alcoholic. Hyper-vigilance, “drink counting,” and imposter syndrome 

🔹 How Amy repeated the past she wanted to escape until a biker and musician named Tony tricked her into healthy love. 

 

This episode is for those of you who:  

✅ Have you ever loved someone who chose addiction over you  

✅ Still believes "chaos = love"  

✅ You’ve been told "forgive and forget,” but still feel the weight of betrayal
