What's really helped with this program is I'm able to identify when I'm getting hurt. I just realized that something was really jacked up, and it was the betrayal. It was his best interest, everybody in my family. And the anger I was feeling was I was waking up from my denial.
Jeff O. has a story that many can relate to, especially if you grew up in a home overshadowed by alcoholism or dysfunction. In this episode of 'Journey to Freedom', Jeff opens up about his childhood lessons: don’t talk, don’t feel, and definitely don’t stand up for yourself. These were the rules he lived by until ACA (Adult Children of Alcoholics) came into his life.
Through ACA, Jeff discovered how to recognize his own pain and began the journey toward self-care and healing. But he didn’t stop there. Now, he’s using his experience to help others navigate their own paths to recovery. The episode covers vital topics like the significance of speaking up in relationships, the hurdles of maintaining recovery in familiar settings, and how accountability can be a powerful tool for healing.
If you’re seeking inspiration or practical advice on overcoming a troubled past, Jeff’s story is one you won’t want to miss.
