Episode 108 - Alexis A
About this episode
Alexis shares her journey of addiction and recovery, highlighting the importance of community support and self-compassion.
In this powerful episode, Alexis shares her story of addiction, recovery, and rebuilding a life she no longer wants to escape from. Raised in chaos and introduced early to loss, substance use became familiar long before it became destructive. From years of drug addiction to a progressive and devastating struggle with alcohol, Alexis traces the repeating patterns that shaped her life, relationships, and legal battles. She speaks honestly about relapse, custody loss, detox, medication-assisted recovery, and the role secular AA and community support played in helping her find stability, accountability, and self-compassion. This is a story about surrender without shame, recovery without perfection, and the quiet, daily work of choosing to stay present. Experience, strength, and hope, shared with courage and clarity.
