In this powerful episode of Interrupted, I sit down with Deanna Powell, host of the newly launched podcast Intrepid Storytelling, to talk about the moments that reshaped her life. Deanna opens up about her journey through alcohol addiction, hitting rock bottom, facing jail time, choosing recovery, and rebuilding a life filled with purpose, clarity, and courage.
She shares how telling her story for the first time cracked something open—in the best way. The positive response she received didn’t just encourage her… it set her free. That moment of liberation became the spark behind her new podcast, where she now helps others find their voice, own their truth, and step boldly into healing.
If you’ve ever wondered what happens when you stop hiding, speak the truth, and let your story breathe—this conversation is your sign. We talk about redemption, resilience, second chances, and the power of storytelling to heal both the listener and the teller.
This is raw, honest, hopeful, and beautifully human.

In this deeply honest episode Laurie sits down with Alexis, host of When the Bough Breaks, for a vulnerable conversation about breaking free from high-control religion, surviving a narcissistic family system, and learning to rebuild a life from the inside out.

Her podcast has become a space where others can finally exhale, reflect, and be reminded that estrangement isn’t the end of the story — it’s often where healing begins.
When she’s not recording, Alexis spends time with her children and works as a photographer/filmographer, and cleaning business owner in the Pacific Northwest. She continues to advocate for self-worth, safe boundaries, and finding your voice by helping her listeners and clients alike rediscover what “home” really means.
