My Mom, the Alcoholic
My Mom, the Alcoholic
Lacie Baker
My upbringing was very much normal for a country kid. When I was in my senior year of high school that all changed. My mom became an alcoholic. In this podcast, I talk about stories I have with her and feelings I have had over the years. This podcast is helping me sort through these tough feelings and thoughts as I hear them back. It is my hopes by publishing this podcast, it will reach out to someone who needs to hear they're not alone.
