Yeah yeah, we all know change is a part of life, and really is the only consistent thing in life. But why does it feel so painful? And how can we mitigate that pain?
Alexandra breaks down the disconnect- our identity (who you are, what actions you take, and what experiences, beliefs and ideas your personality is based on) is rooted in the day to day life. So when change happens, of course it's painful. We're "losing" a piece of our identity.

From being in active addiction and living out of her car at 18 years old, to sober and living a life beyond her wildest dreams, Alexandra breaks down how she got from there to here, the lessons she's learned along the way, what she's still learning, and how you can apply it to your own life.
Alexandra believes we all have a moral imperative to share our story with others, as it's the key to someone else's growth, healing and joy. Whether your goal is to get and stay sober, get fit and stay consistent, or get closer to God, we cover it all here.
