Ever wondered how alcohol shapes the lives of female professionals and affects intimacy? In this episode of 'The Unscrewed Podcast', hosts Lisa and Ellie tackle these crucial issues head-on. They bring a mix of personal stories and expert insights to the table, making it a must-listen for anyone touched by addiction.
