A Message That Matters

Alicia doesn’t speak from theory, she speaks from lived experience. Her story, reflected in More Than a Secret, connects with audiences navigating shame, silence, identity, and healing. She helps people:

  • Break Free from the bondage of Secrecy and Shame

  • Gain the courage to choose the harder right

  • End the cycle of returning to what’s familiar and reclaim your worth

  • Heal from toxic relationships

  • Learn to live in freedom with this practical framework: Find Your Tribe, Grieve the Gap, Take the Reins

A heart to help others

The truth is, I was raised right; I haven’t always lived right. A decade ago, I engaged in a four-year affair that nearly destroyed me.

I didn’t want to be a secret for the rest of my life, and I didn’t want to lose the man that held my whole world in his hands. He always said it was something we would take to our graves. So when I hit rock bottom, wanting nothing more than to die, I went searching in confidence for someone that had been in my shoes to draw inspiration and hope from.

How did she break free from the toxicity of an extramarital affair and not just survive, but ever thrive in life again?

I couldn’t find anyone who had shared their story, so I wrote More Than a Secret for the woman I used to be.
