I wanted you to like me and approve of me so much. So I was the overachiever like times a thousand.
Marcy Langlois has faced more than her fair share of challenges, but her story is one of triumph over adversity. Born with a cleft palate, Marcy underwent 33 surgeries throughout her childhood and teenage years, dealing with significant speech impediments and the emotional toll of constant medical procedures. But that was just the beginning.
Marcy’s life took a darker turn in her senior year of high school when she was involved in a car accident that claimed the lives of three people. The trauma from this event plunged her into a decade-long battle with addiction and chronic illness, leading to a series of self-destructive behaviours as she tried to escape her pain. However, Marcy’s journey didn’t end there.
She eventually found her way to sobriety and healing through a combination of energy medicine, somatic experiencing, and developing a strong spiritual practice. Her story is a testament to the resilience of the human spirit and the power of holistic healing. Stephan Neff, the host, guides the conversation with empathy and curiosity, allowing Marcy to share her experiences openly. This episode is an inspiring listen for anyone dealing with trauma, addiction, or chronic illness.
It offers hope that no matter how deep the darkness, it’s possible to find light and live an incredible life. Tune in to hear Marcy’s remarkable transformation and the lessons she learned along the way.
