The Moment Michelle Heaton Became Dependent On Alcohol

Singer and TV presenter Michelle Heaton's story is about more than addiction. It's about identity, loss, and finding your way back to yourself.

In this episode, Michelle shares how a BRCA2 diagnosis, surgical menopause, and addiction became deeply intertwined, and how recovery helped her reconnect with the person she thought she'd lost.

Together, we explore shame, healing, and why recovery is never just about one person.

This episode covers the following themes: Surgical Menopause & Identity, Active Addiction, Shame & Isolation, Recovery, and Supporting Loved Ones.
