S4 E17 - Wife, Mother, Drunk: Breaking the Silence with Emily Redondo
What happens when the roles of wife and mother begin to erase who you are?
In this powerful and deeply honest conversation, I sit down with author Emily Redondo to talk about her journey behind her book Wife, Mother, Drunk: An Intergenerational Memoir of Loss and Love. A raw and courageous look at motherhood, addiction, identity loss, and healing.
Emily opens up about the silent struggles so many women face but rarely talk about, the pressure to “hold it all together.” The loneliness that can exist even in a full home, and how coping can quietly turn into something much heavier.
This conversation isn’t just about struggle, it’s about awakening.
It’s about recognizing when you’ve lost yourself… and finding the courage to come back.
Whether you’re a parent feeling overwhelmed, a mother questioning your identity, or someone navigating your own healing journey, this episode will remind you:
👉 You are not alone
👉 You are not broken
👉 And it’s never too late to rewrite your story
This is a conversation about truth, grace, and reclaiming yourself, one step at a time.
