Sean McCann and his wife Andrea Aragon have co-written a deeply personal memoir called One Good Reason: A Memoir of Addiction and Recovery, Music and Love.
The book is an honest story about Sean's sexual abuse that leads to years of drug and alcohol addiction. We get Sean's perspective, but also Andrea's side of the story as the wife who loved him but ultimately had him choose his family or his addiction.
Sean is now in recovery and is known as mental health, addiction, and recovery advocate.
Listen to this wonderful conversation as we hear them both in their own voices. If you are a sexual abuse survivor we hope you find comfort that there is light on the other side.

MORE about Sean:

After exiting the internationally renowned Newfoundland folk group and publicly admitting a secret past where he used alcohol to mask the pain of sexual abuse by a priest; Séan stopped lying to himself. With his boys and his wife Andrea as his motivation, Séan found the courage to face his truth and overcome his demons. Today he continues his journey as a singer, songwriter, husband, father, and now a sought after keynote speaker and mental health advocate, always with Old Brown by his side.
