The heart and soul of this podcast is personal transformation. Our guests share stories from their personal journeys that are compelling, inspirational, and at times improbable. Our guest for Episode #29 is Alia Wiant.
Alia’s story is all of those. She is your typical middle aged woman, happily married to the love of her life and raising her four children. Most people know Alia as a kind and genuinely happy person…and she is. To the world outside at least.
What you don’t see is the silent battle being waged inside…a battle she deals with daily.
This one is going to have you shaking your head in amazement, nodding your head in agreement…and maybe even shedding a tear. Alia pulled us out of our comfort zone.
We covered some serious topics such as:
•Blending a blended family
•Divorce
•Depression and anxiety
•Depression doesn’t look sick
•Stigma surrounding mental health
•Cardiomyopathy
•Being given an expiration date at 21
This show exceeded my expectations and I already knew her story. Alia tells her story in a way that is vulnerable, sometimes raw, and above all else authentic.
As always, the visually inclined can watch it all go down on our YouTube, and of course you’ll find us on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and your favorite podcast platform.
