S3 Ep178: Seana Smith: Going Under

  • Summary

  • This episode contains references to abuse which some listeners may find distressing.

    This week we are joined by the wonderful Seana Smith on Over The Influence!

    Seana is an author who is originally from Scotland and is now based in Sydney, Australia. We are also delighted to say that Seana is one of our own, not only a Brit but part of the OTI crew.

    Seana's book 'Going Under: A Memoir of Family Secrets, Addiction and Escape' tells the story that from the outside, Seana lived an enviable life. An Oxford graduate, a successful career with the BBC and Sydney's Channel 9, a bestselling author, happily married. But behind this perfect life she had a secret: Seana was a drinker, and alcohol was slowly taking away her life, destroying her health, her emotional well-being, her world.

    Thanks so much to Seana for coming on to the podcast! Make sure you find her book online or in the audiobook version from 1st September or in the shops if you're in Australia.
