In this episode, Dr. Howland sits down with Lexi Zettle, a fellow author from “Writer’s Island.” Lexi is a survivor of sex trafficking. From her haunting memoir to the darkly seductive TV series she’s developing, Lexi shares how she became a sugar baby for Manhattan’s elite circles… and the decade it took for her to escape. She is currently attending the federal criminal trial in Manhattan of the man who exploited her, Tal Alexander.
As she reclaims her voice, Lexi illuminates the hidden costs of addiction, shame, and illusion, remaining committed to one truth: when you dare to show the world who you really are and bring your shadow into the light, you unlock the power to set yourself free.
