Marcy Langlois is a Trauma Informed Coach who helps people transcend their pain into power, heal their trauma and their nervous system to recover for good.

Marcy is also a trauma survivor, chronic illness warrior, and is over 20 years into her journey of sobriety. She now guides others to live beyond their limits through her coaching services, YouTube channel, and multiple other resources.

Marcy shares how her own personal struggles began from the day she was born, facing many formidable difficulties, undergoing more than twenty surgical procedures to address her cleft lip and palate. This physical struggle only compounded the emotional burdens she endured growing up, when she was subjected to relentless teasing and bullying during her childhood, as her appearance and speech differed from her peers.

She continued to struggle with her deeply entrenched beliefs of being worthless and unlovable, turning to alcohol during her middle school years to numb her pain. Unfortunately, although it temporarily numbed her pain, it accelerated a downward spiral, resulting in a decade-long struggle with alcoholism that resulted in the loss of employment, devastated relationships, and a battle with chronic illness that nearly cost Marcy her life. Until the day she saw the light and changed her life forever.

Marcy shares her remarkable story of personal transformation including how dealing with the shame who shaped who she had become, how she changed the wiring of her nervous system simply by changing her thoughts, and how to eliminate predatory thoughts from her inner dialogue, and so much more!
