Episode 4: The day it all changed

In an open conversation with presenter Laurent Auclair, contributor Mark Bennett reminisces about the chain of events that eventually made him understand that he had a real problem with alcohol, and how he decided to turn his life around.

“An Ordinary Australian, a personal account of social drinking and alcoholism” is a 4-part open discussion with co-creator and contributor Mark Bennett, who, after three decades of alcohol use and abuse, is now sober and ready to share his personal journey. From ordinary social alcoholism to the devastating emotional impact on personal and professional relationships, this is a universal story that affects many of us. There is no judgment here, this is just a conversation starter so we can all examine our personal relationship with alcohol and decide if it is a healthy one.

Produced and presented by Laurent Auclair.
