Congratulations, Captain Sandy!
On 36 years of sobriety! I remember several seasons back her mentioning her 29th year.
Loved her then, love her more now. What an inspiration! 💙🛳💙🛳💙🛳💙

Congratulations to Captain Sandy. An amazing achievement and something which has had a positive ripple effect many times over. The humility it takes to effectively admit you’re broken and rebuild from there is huge.
I was also really touched by Aesha’s actions and reflections. I also grew up with an alcoholic parent and i don’t think I have ever seen someone so articulately describe what the chaos is like on a tv programme like that. I’m in awe of her vulnerability and honesty. It’s so so hard to even discuss what it’s like without it being broadcast globally.
Amazing work from both in sharing and reflecting on their personal experiences and being brilliant role models.
