Attention Isn’t Affection

Velvet &amp; Vice: The Stripped Truth is an unfiltered, raw, and deeply personal podcast that exposes the reality behind hypersexuality, addiction, trauma, and healing. Hosted by Lexi, a former dancer who spent years chasing validation through desire, this show peels back the layers of what it means to survive abuse, navigate toxic patterns, and fight for self-worth in a world that profits off brokenness.
 
Through solo episodes and powerful interviews, Lexi shares her journey&mdash;how childhood trauma rewired her mind, how the club gave her power but also took parts of her, and how she's breaking free from cycles that once defined her. Each episode is a deep dive into the hard truths: the highs, the self-destruction, and the relentless work of rebuilding.
 
This isn't just a story about the past. It's about taking back control, rewriting the narrative, and proving that healing is the hardest hustle&mdash;but one worth fighting for.
 
No filters. No shame. Just the stripped truth.
