Facing Addiction in the Public Eye

Today we are joined by Beth McDonough, a duPont Columbia and Emmy award winning investigative tv reporter who spent three decades covering some of the country's biggest news stories, from the Jayme Closs abduction, to the 35W bridge collapse, and the death of rockstar Prince. But in her debut memoir, Standby, Beth turns the camera on herself. After two DUI's, public humiliation and exile, the loss of her beloved journalism career, she rebuilt her life through sobriety, resilience and a relentless pursuit of second chances. Standby is more than one woman's story, it's a roadmap for anyone who has ever stumbled, showing how setbacks can become springboards. Beth is here to share her journey of redemption, reinvention and the power of standing back up.Website: www.bethdmedia.com
