In this episode of SoberQ, Wenceslao opens up about the challenging journey of making amends with family during his recovery. With a focus on genuine change rather than just apologies, Wenceslao shares how he tackled financial and living amends, particularly with his father. The process was slow and often painful, highlighting the difficulty of truly changing attitudes and dynamics within relationships.
