In this episode:
In this episode, I talk with debut author Jessica Guerrieri about her novel Between the Devil and the Deep Blue Sea, a raw, honest story about addiction, motherhood, and recovery. We dive into why she chose fiction over memoir, how mommy wine culture harms more than it helps, and what it took for her to leave teaching.
If you’ve ever felt ashamed, stuck, or unsure how you got here, this one’s for you. Jessica’s story is a powerful reminder that healing is possible, alcohol can trap anyone, and you’re not alone.
