Summary

In this episode our guest Alex tells us her incredible story of perseverance. She moved to a new city to start a new life, and when she met Jacob shortly after she thought she had found her true love, but the longer they were together the more controlling he became. First it was her weight, then her religion, her finances, and pretty soon they were married with a kid and Alex saw no way out. This story taught us so much about a mothers strength, and the plot twist at the end will leave you with your jaw on the floor!
