I wanted to provide for my kids what I didn't have, which was unwavering love and support.
Ever thought about going back to school as you approach 60? Alicia Rodriguez is doing just that, and she's not stopping until she earns her doctorate. In this episode of 'The Lighter Side with Jay', host Jay Casale chats with Alicia about her extraordinary journey of personal reinvention and resilience. From a turbulent childhood to raising her sons Jared and Tyler (who've also been guests on the show), Alicia has faced numerous challenges head-on.
She’s undergone three weight loss surgeries after a lap band eroded into her stomach, but she hasn’t let that stop her. Instead, she’s continually reinvented herself, proving that it’s never too late to chase your dreams. They also touch on current events and social issues, reflecting on how the pandemic has affected mental health. Alicia’s story is a powerful reminder of the importance of perseverance, community support, and the endless possibilities of personal growth.
Tune in for an inspiring conversation that will leave you feeling motivated to tackle your own challenges.
