Summary
This week, my husband Evan and I are bringing an episode to you guys while quarantined, or social distancing, in our home. We have made every effort possible to stay home, and hope you all stay safe and healthy during this global pandemic. Evan is forever calm, cool and collected, so I thought he'd be a great guest for these times. We talk about Evan’s addiction story, our relationship, marriage, and first impressions of each other, and his almost 15-year sobriety. We also talk about our treatment center, Alo House, and what’s happening in the treatment world. We know during this time of isolation, people can really struggle with mental health, so we are discussing how to handle that as well.
Evan and I are highly sensitive and empathic people, as most who struggle with addiction are. We believe these empaths are truly the mystics, truth-tellers, and way-showers of our planet, and need to be properly cared for. They are not the crazy ones! Our mission with addiction treatment is to help show people their own power, and remove the stigma around suffering.

| 0:20.5 | capitalist machine, or just need a moment to remember that you're not alone in your loneliness, |
| 0:26.2 | we're serving up the ultimate truth. Your challenges don't define you, how you deal with them does. |
| 0:33.0 | So are you ready to recover from reality? |
| 0:38.8 | You were very kind of full of yourself, which was funny. I mean, all things considered |
| 0:46.3 | your predicament that you were in. Which Evan had no idea about. |
| 0:50.2 | No, I had no idea about who I was. But it took you being full of yourself for me to even wonder. |
| 0:56.7 | You came in and you know, I don't know if any of you, probably some of you, |
| 1:00.6 | went to an AA meeting and you go around in a circle and share and I got to Alexis and she was |
| 1:04.9 | very beautiful. She had this old kind of movie star thing in the scarf, you know, |
| 1:09.1 | round her head and big sunglasses. And she was definitely very beautiful. And it gets to her. |
| 1:15.4 | And she says, oh my god, I got voted the like best celebrity mug shot in TMZ. I'm like, |
| 1:21.7 | some embarrassing like, you got what? |
| 1:28.3 | That was a quick clip from this week's episode with my husband, Evan Haynes. Evan joined us once |
| 1:35.7 | before on a very spur of the moment podcast episode, which we recorded when we did the |
| 1:45.9 | reunion show at the very, very beginning of my podcast journey, which was right around a year ago. |
| 1:54.1 | It's crazy that it's been a year and we've grown and grown into such a big and beautiful |
| 1:59.2 | community. And for that, I am so grateful. But in this episode, we are diving into Evan's story |
