Welcome back to Becoming: HER. This week I have a special guest who you may know from the screen but I am excited for you to get to know on a much deeper level. Joining me is Alexia Echavarria, one of the stars of the Real Housewives of Miami. While many of us have seen her glamorous and fiery personality on the show, Alexia’s story goes far beyond reality TV.
She is a devoted mother, a woman who walked through unimaginable challenges, and someone who has had to redefine herself in the face of heartbreak, in the face of change and reinvention, all while being in the public eye. Tune in to find out more!
In this episode…
