289. The Stalking Stepmother
from Strictly Stalking
Alexis grew up in the shadows of neglect and abuse, with a stepmother whose control didn't end when she left home at 17. Even from a distance, the stalking and manipulation continued — a relentless effort to keep Alexis under her thumb. But Alexis fought back in the quietest, most powerful way: by healing. Through somatic therapy and EMDR, she's learning to calm her nervous system, reclaim her sense of safety, and rebuild trust in herself. Her journey hasn't been easy — but it's given her a sharp clarity. She now recognizes the red flags, holds her boundaries, and protects the peace she fought so hard to find. Today, Alexis is here to share her story — not just to speak her truth, but to let others know they're not alone. **The following episode of Strictly Stalking contains graphics depictions of physical violence.
