You’re in luck:    Andrea Ashley, former CPA turned podcast host & producer. She grew up outside of Philadelphia in an alcoholic household. Andrea turned to drugs and alcohol herself at the age of 12. After years in and out rehabs and boarding schools, she was granted the gift of sobriety at the age of 19 and celebrated 13 years of continuous sobriety this past September.   In 2018 and 9 years of sobriety, Andrea had her “second great surrender” and came to terms with the true impact her dysfunctional upbringing had on her. This bottom and the subsequent healing work led her to launch Adult Child in March of 2021. The podcast is a deep dive into the impact of growing up in a dysfunctional family – with topics including complex trauma, addiction, & codependency. Andrea describes the podcast as “vulnerable and filterless conversations of depth and meaning, with a healthy dose of humor and self-mockery.”   www.adultchildpodcast.com https://tiktok.com/@adultchildpod https://www.instagram.com/adultchildpod/   Inspired by Andrea’s story to take the leap and start your healing journey today?  Go Apply to the E.S.L.
