Setting boundaries with my homeless, alcoholic dad - George Billinge
In this raw and moving episode, we sit down with George Billinge as he shares the emotional journey of growing up with a father lost to alcohol addiction. George speaks candidly about watching his dad’s decline — from a loving parent to a man consumed by addiction, now living homeless.
George opens up about the heartbreak of witnessing that transformation and the difficult reality of maintaining healthy boundaries — not out of anger, but out of love for himself and those closest to him. His story is one of deep reflection, personal growth, and the strength it takes to protect your peace while still holding compassion.
This episode is a powerful listen for anyone affected by a loved one’s addiction. It's about the pain of letting go, the courage of setting boundaries, and the hope that comes from healing.
Tune in for an honest, heartfelt conversation about love, loss, and resilience.
