When do you have a problem with Alcohol? Alcohol is one of those topics that most people just assume you drink, as Becca says. It has been so integrated into our culture that it can be hard to know where the line is and when you have crossed it. Becca launched her podcast in 2020 to have conversations with celebrities and how they overcame their battle with Alcohol. Sharing her own story on the podcast and first on a local radio station, her podcast is an excellent example of the force for good a cause-focused podcast can have globally.
