In this week's episode, Jessalynn welcomes Alex Vigue, host of the "Let's Not Sugarcoat It" podcast, who shares her incredible story of resilience and recovery. In 2009, Alex faced a life-threatening battle with the H1N1 virus, leading to a hospital stay of 169 days and a daunting recovery process. With only a 25% chance of survival, she endured a significant physical and emotional toll that left her with both physical and invisible scars. Alex opens up about the impact of her traumatic health scare on her mental well-being, as well as her tumultuous relationship with alcohol and her journey with sobriety. Alex's story is one of overcoming adversity through self-reflection, the importance of addressing trauma, and the transformative power of self-love and accountability. We are so grateful for her honesty and vulnerability, and we can't wait for you to listen!  Be sure to follow and keep up with Alex on Instagram and listen to her podcast here!  If you or someone you know is suffering from the effects of trauma, please know you are not alone in your healing journey.
