Back to Episodes"From a Five-Story Fall to Finding Her Footing: The Art and Resilience of Alexis Mazon"
Description
On this episode of Walk and Roll Live – Disability Stories, hosts Doug Vincent and Addie Rich sit down with the vibrant and resilient Alexis Mazon, a graphic designer, student, and spinal cord injury survivor whose life changed forever after a devastating five-story fall in 2021.
Alexis shares how she went from being hospitalized with a shattered spine, traumatic brain injury, and memory loss—to rediscovering her independence, identity, and artistic voice. With courage, humor, and honesty, she walks us through her recovery journey: from wheelchair to walker to walking stick… and from creative silence to full-on expression through ceramics, glassblowing, and sculpture.
This is more than a recovery story—it's a celebration of rediscovery, perseverance, and the healing power of community, art, and a whole lot of heart. Alexis proves that life after trauma can be rebuilt with intention, support, and a fierce belief in yourself. You don’t want to miss this one. Walk and Roll Live
