Publisher's Synopsis
A riveting and raw story of how one woman overcame alcoholism and mental illness and broke free from the genetic blueprint of addiction and abuse that demonized her family for generations. She sets you in a front-row seat as she shares her life story and experiences, which show the strength, determination and courage of how she no longer wanted to continue with this way of life, and how she would do whatever it took to protect her children from being exposed to a life of addiction that is so normalized and influenced within society. Shannan teaches about addiction and the consequences of speaking her truth. She fights past fear, loneliness and judgement to end the inner pain that has haunted her for years, and finds inner peace. Along her path she realizes how life is a spiritual journey and there is a lesson to be learned with every experience, personal encounter and relationship. Most importantly, the lesson is how you have a relationship with yourself, that you have the power to change everything, and it all comes from within.
