Alexis Haines

Alexis Haines was once a reality star, heroin addict and member of the "Bling Ring," a group of Hollywood burglars whose exploits became the basis of a Sofia Coppola movie--and for which she served time. Today, she is a mother, wife, writer and birth doula. She and her husband run the addiction treatment center Alo House Recovery Centers, where she inspires young women to tap into their inner knowingness to find empowerment and connection with themselves and others.

She also hosts the raw and resonant Recovering from Reality podcast, a show for people who would rather "wake the f*ck" up than fall victim to their own stories. Alexis turns her pain and her more embarrassing moments into opportunities for empowerment and shows others how to do the same.

Alexis has appeared on Entertainment Tonight, E! News and The Doctors, as well as in the pages of Vice, Us Weekly and The New York Post. She lives in suburban Los Angeles with her husband, two daughters, a cat and a three-legged dog named Sailor--and she can't believe that's where she ended up either.
