I grew up with an alcoholic father. And it wasn’t easy. I learned to pretend everything was fine while inside I carried guilt, shame, and fear of what people would think. Silence became part of me.

 

It took me decades to talk about what I felt. Until I realized something: it wasn’t just my story.

 

Whether you grew up around addiction, abandonment, violence, emotional absence, or control… the pattern is the same: we learned to stay silent. And that silence leaves a mark.

 

When I finally spoke, something shifted. And I saw this clearly: there are very few spaces to talk about what we lived through as children.

 

That’s how Hijos del Caos was born: a podcast and a community.

 

Because you’re not alone. Because our stories are more alike than we think. Because listening, understanding, and putting words to what we lived… heals.

What happened to you wasn’t your fault. But healing is your responsibility.
