Listen Later

Alyx Gold’s story starts off like many others — a relatively normal childhood, a decent upbringing, nothing too out of the ordinary. She had hopes, dreams, and a future ahead of her. But everything changed the day she tried heroin for the first time at just 15 years old. That single moment sent her life spiraling into a world she never could have imagined. What followed was years of darkness — battling addiction, committing crimes just to survive, and selling herself for money in the streets. The girl who once had so much potential found herself trapped in a cycle of pain, shame, and survival.

But Alyx isn’t someone who gave up. She’s someone who got up. After years of hitting rock bottom over and over again, she made the decision to fight for her life. Through countless struggles and moments where the light at the end of the tunnel seemed impossible to find, she found recovery — and held on with everything she had.

Today, Alyx works at a rehab center, pouring her heart and soul into helping others who are walking the same broken path she once did. She’s a fierce advocate, a powerful voice, and proof that even in the darkest places, redemption is possible.In this episode, Alyx sits down to share her jaw-dropping journey — raw, real, and unfiltered.

From the depths of addiction to the heights of purpose-driven recovery, she tells it all. If you’ve ever wondered how someone can come back from the brink and turn their pain into power, this is the story you need to hear.
