David shares raw and deeply personal stories from his childhood in suburban America, where cocaine use and chaos hid behind what looked like a “normal” life. From being a parentified child to navigating fear, shame, and isolation, his experiences highlight the emotional toll addiction takes on families—especially children. Together, Tammy and David unpack the long-term effects of childhood trauma, including PTSD, emotional triggers, and generational patterns. They talk about what it really means to heal, how forgiveness plays a role, and why sharing your story is one of the most powerful ways to release what’s been held inside for so long. If you’ve ever felt like no one understands what you went through, this conversation will remind you that you’re not alone—and that healing, growth, and a beautiful life are possible.
