Sometimes I would wish, like I wish that it happened so much earlier your sobriety, so we could go back and have more time with the kids when they were younger and have a lot better memories than what they have to deal with and I have to deal with.

In this eye-opening episode of the Untoxicated Podcast, Sheri and Matt Salis take us through their personal stories of summer holidays marred by the shadows of active alcoholism.
