Finding Your Voice: Judith’s Journey Through a Family's Struggle with Alcoholism

The emotional rollercoaster isn't as dramatic. It'll be so much more about not having to prove myself for a long time, because it's what I said that I would do.
Growing up in a household shadowed by alcoholism isn't easy. In this episode of 'Two Roads Travelled', Jo and Paula sit down with Judith, who knows this reality all too well. As the daughter of a drinker, Judith shares her personal experiences and the uncertainty that looms over families affected by alcohol misuse. She opens up about the emotional rollercoaster, the anxiety, and the coping mechanisms that become second nature in such environments. But Judith’s story doesn’t end there.
Today, she dedicates her life to helping others find their voice. Through her work, she assists people in recognizing and releasing emotional and energetic restrictions around self-expression, communication, and public speaking. Jo and Paula dive deep into how alcoholism impacts relationships and boundaries, emphasizing the importance of safe spaces for emotional expression. They highlight Judith's transformative work in liberating voices, breaking the cycle of suppressed emotions, and empowering individuals to speak their truth.
This episode is a heartfelt conversation filled with empathy, expertise, and a touch of humor. It’s not just about the struggle; it’s about finding hope and strength in the journey. Tune in to hear Judith’s inspiring story and learn how to navigate the complexities of living with a drinker.
