In this episode, Lindsey speaks with alopecia therapist and coach Alison Mann. Alison has had alopecia since she was very young and is thus a great help to those with alopecia as well as to parents supporting children with alopecia. In addition to discussing her hair loss journey as well as therapy, the ladies also discussed Alison's pursuit of gymnastics from an early age. She opened up about leaving the gymnastics world and how she had to meet her alopecia head on when she finally shed that identity. Alison lost so many friends when she made the brave decision to leave the gymnastics world behind, but what she gained? You’re going to have to listen to find out more.
