Jessica Landon: Finding Light After Darkness with Sober Mom Squad

It's different for everyone, but I do think universally for those the loved ones, never stop trying, never lose hope, because that's the one thing my parents did.
Jessica Landon seemed to have it all – a career as an actress, comedian, and Playboy model. But behind the glamorous facade was a woman grappling with deep-seated childhood trauma. Starting to drink as a pre-teen, Jessica's reliance on alcohol grew to the point where it felt like her only lifeline. A harrowing 16-day stay in the ICU, where she faced multiple organ failures due to her drinking, became the wake-up call she needed.
In this episode of 'Heart of the Matter,' Jessica joins Elizabeth Vargas to share her powerful story of recovery and redemption. She talks about the pivotal role her parents played in her healing journey and how humor became a crucial part of her recovery toolkit. As a co-founder of Sober Mom Squad, Jessica has found purpose in helping other moms navigate their paths to sobriety.
This conversation is not just about overcoming addiction; it's about finding strength in vulnerability, the importance of community, and the surprising ways laughter can mend a broken spirit. Whether you're on your own recovery journey or supporting someone who is, Jessica's story offers hope and inspiration.
