Alisha’s Mom’s Story — Adoption, Addiction & Panic Attacks

Alisha’s Mom’s Story — Adoption, Addiction & Panic Attacks

This episode includes discussions of domestic violence, addiction, and heavy mental health topics. Please listen with care or feel free to skip if these topics are triggering for you.

This week’s guest is a Pretty Basic legend in her own right — Alisha’s mom, Chris!

From being told “girls don’t play drums” to booking professional gigs at 15, she’s been proving people wrong since day one. Chris opens up about being adopted and the powerful phrase she’s lived by: “I was selected, not expected.” We get into it all — nature vs. nurture, panic attacks, faith, and the journey that made Mama Marie the powerhouse she is today.

This episode is full of those “ohhh that’s where Alisha gets it from” moments. Stay till the end to hear the rockstar Momma Marie in action— with clips of her jamming on the drums.
