Jessica Landon: From Rock Bottom to Resilience

When I started asking for signs and signals, I mean it was irrefutable. Because love for yourself and wanting to be sober for yourself is really hard, as at first, especially when you've done such shitty things.
What happens when a rising comedic actress finds herself in the depths of addiction? In this heartfelt episode of Decidedly Dry, Jess Steitzer sits down with her friend Jessica Landon to explore this very question. Jessica, known for her roles on Comedy Central’s MADtv and Nickelodeon’s Drake and Josh, opens up about her spiral into nonfunctioning alcoholism that nearly destroyed her career and relationships. But this isn't just a story of downfall—it's one of remarkable recovery and transformation.
Jessica shares her journey from hitting rock bottom to becoming a certified resilience recovery coach, public speaker, and devoted mom. She dives into how she embraced forgiveness, gratitude, and what she fondly calls the 'woo-woo'—a blend of spirituality and unconventional healing practices. Her story is a testament to the power of vulnerability and self-love in overcoming addiction.
Throughout the episode, Jessica discusses the pivotal role humor played in her healing process and how she uses it to connect with others facing similar struggles. She also touches on the impact of addiction on her personal and professional life, the dangers of social media comparisons, and the importance of prayer in her recovery journey. This episode isn't just for those battling addiction; it's for anyone seeking inspiration to turn their life around.
Jessica's candidness and resilience offer a beacon of hope, showing that even from the darkest places, one can emerge stronger and more fulfilled.
