The Courage to Change: A Recovery Podcast - 50: Alyssa Rocco: The Undertaker's Daughter Whose Journey Taught Her How to Live

50: Alyssa Rocco: The Undertaker's Daughter Whose Journey Taught Her How to Live

05/19/20 • 77 min

The Courage to Change: A Recovery Podcast

Alyssa Rocco is on a mission to create positive change in the world. Along with living her recovery from alcoholism and an eating disorder, she is currently a Senior Life Coach at Handel Group, which she discovered seven years ago after finding a deep desire to change her career. After one session with a coach at Handel Group, she quickly discovered what was missing - she wasn't living true to her own dreams; she wasn’t happy, and she didn’t know how to become happy.

This realization inspired a journey: Alyssa changed careers and became a coach. She learned how to date honestly, transformed the dynamic in her family, navigated addiction, and confronted how to create and maintain great relationships in her life. Her analytical mindset and process-oriented nature led to her work in the Media Division, and most recently, to build, test, and launch Inner.U, Handel Group’s first digital course.

Alyssa grew up in Boston and she received her Bachelor’s degree in communication, film and technical writing from the University of Massachusetts at Amherst and her Master’s degree in Organizational Psychology from the Massachusetts School of Psychology. She is certified in process improvement techniques and six sigma practices. She is also a dancer and practices 5 Rhythms dance.

Ben Moroski is an L.A. Drama Critics Circle Award-nominated writer and actor. His plays have garnered numerous Los Angeles theatre awards and nominations. His first L.A.-produced play, This Vicious Minute, recounted his years-long battle with self-injury after being raised in a cult.
