Vendor Spotlight!!! Meet Lexy Dove



Check out one of our featured guest scheduled to perform at the Women Meeting Challenges - Making Change Conference.  Lexy Dove is a recovering addict. For over 30 years, Lexy has struggled with a life of drug addiction, crime, and prison.

Lexy takes you inside the mind of an addict and reveals the insanity of drug abuse.  In this piece, he shows you through individual characters the real behaviors of alcoholism, heroin, and crack/cocaine.

Lexy has seen first hand how drug and alcohol abuse plays a major role in Domestic Violence and Abuse, as well as major behavior issues.

Lexy has decided rather than allowing his circumstances to define him - he has devoted his life to educating and warning about the effects and consequences of drug addiction.

In his own words: "Wheather or not this tactic will work or not? We will see! All I know is that I'm going to do what I can do to help someone not make some of the same bad decisions I did.  And if I can save just one, then it was well worth it. Mission Accomplished!"  

Check out a sample of Lexy's monologue: Straight From The Horses Mouth

Straight From The Horses Mouth

"I WAS BORN IN THE GHETTO, AND
 RAISED BY THE STREETS

WHERE THE STRONG SURVIVE - 
AND PERISHED ARE THE WEAK

IN AND OUT OF JAIL BEFORE
MY LIFE HAD TRULY BEGUN

BACK THEN, MY BEST FRIEND,
WAS A BUCK AND A GUN!"
