What happens when the media sensationalizes a struggle — but forgets to show the healing? In this unforgettable episode, Alisa Fliss shares the powerful truth behind her journey with eating disorders, recovery, and being featured in an HBO documentary that left out the most important part: her rise. From childhood experiences shaped by mixed messages about body image to a military career that masked deeper pain, Alisa’s story dismantles assumptions and brings voice to what recovery really looks like.
Together, we explore the messy, unfiltered reality of healing — and the cultural silence around it. Alisa opens up about trauma, resilience, and what it means to become a role model in the face of stigma. If you or someone you love has ever felt unseen in their struggle, this conversation is the mirror and the map. Inside, you’ll discover a perspective that challenges norms, celebrates inner strength, and refuses to stay silent about what truly matters.
