(VIDEO PODCAST AVAILABLE ON SPOTIFY & YOUTUBE) Join Alix and her high school bestie Isabella as they reminisce on the evolution of their friendship, and the chaotic memories they’ve created together over the years. They recall all of the “firsts” they shared including stealing from their parent’s liquor cabinets and experiencing their first hangover. Being long distance friends, they share the hardwork and commitment it takes to maintain their relationship from two different states. The answer? Lots and lots of facetimes.
For the very first time, Alix opens up about her past toxic relationship with food. Alix gets vulnerable as she shares the intense diet culture that was present and normalized amongst her high school friends. It wasn’t until Alix got to college, and developed stable friendships that she realized she was struggling with an eating disorder. With the support of her friends, Alix began to develop a healthy relationship with food and regained control of her inner thoughts when it came to her body.
