Chances are you may recognize today’s guest Alyson Stoner from one of her many roles on the Disney Channel and other blockbuster hits like the Cheaper By The Dozen franchise, Camp Rock, Step-Up or from Missy Elliott’s music video for “Work It.” Well today, the former child super-star sits down with Maria to talk about how she navigated the industry, the struggles she faced as she transitioned out of Hollywood, the steps she took to successfully start over and her journey to mental health advocacy. We especially dive deep into the mind-body connection, which is the basis of Alyson’s business!
