In Part 1, Eboné’s guest shares how alcohol quietly took over her life, reflecting on her childhood trauma, early substance use, and the moments that shaped her alcohol addiction. She reveals a heartbreaking link between starting prescription medication as a child and later embracing alcohol—both times feeling more accepted, more “likable,” and more at ease in the eyes of others—a cycle she didn’t realize had started long before her first drink.
