In this deeply personal episode, I open up about the fractured relationship with my father and the pain of feeling misunderstood after being molested as a child. That silence and confusion drove me to seek his approval in all the wrong ways—ways that spiraled into rebellion, drug use, and a loss of identity after a sports injury changed everything. With no support for my mental or physical health, I became pregnant and addicted at 19, struggling to survive in a world I didn’t know how to navigate. All of this unfolded as my grandmother—the one stable presence in my life—was diagnosed with cancer. This chapter of my story isn’t easy, but it’s real. And it’s an important piece of how I got here.
