Family & Relationships
Showing Up at Home: Marriage, Parenting, and Presence
Alcohol often shows up at home disguised as stress relief — a way to unwind, cope, or get through the demands of daily life. Over time, it can quietly create distance where we want connection most.
In this keynote, Todd explores how alcohol impacted both his marriage and his role as a parent — numbing presence, shortening patience, and creating emotional space at home. Through honest, often humorous storytelling, he shares what changed when he chose clarity and began truly showing up for the people who mattered most.
This talk resonates with parents, partners, and families who want deeper connection, better communication, and more intentional presence — without shame, labels, or judgment.
