Marcy Langlois has lived a life that could have been defined by its limitations. At times, her journey read like a horror story, a tragedy, a coming-of-age fable, and even a romance. But after a path littered with setbacks, obstacles, and pain, Marcy has found a way forward. And she wants to walk the road with you and show you that despite your limitations, your life can be filled with self-discovery, self-love, and contentment.

Born with a cleft lip and palate, Marcy endured a childhood of medical fragility. Surgeries, doctors’ appointments, and worse—the bullying, teasing, and whispers of others.While still in high school, Marcy experienced a tragic car accident which she was fortunate to survive. By age 27, Marcy’s guilt had taken the wheel and alcohol was her trusty co-pilot.

After a decade-long battle with alcoholism, Marcy reached rock bottom. When there was nowhere left to turn, she reached out for help and looked inward at the beliefs, habits, behaviors, and trauma that created that unsustainable life.

After embracing sobriety, Marcy engaged in therapy, personal reflection, and spiritual exploration. She put one foot on the path of recovery and has never looked back.

Today, Marcy and her wife have created a family which has thrived in a relationship spanning over two decades. Professionally, she has achieved remarkable success in the banking industry. However, her true passion lies in sharing her transformative story with others. On her website, marcylanglois.com, she has created a space where others who have struggles—whether with alcohol or drugs, sexuality and identity, or recovery from the most challenging illnesses and traumas—can find hope and healing.

You can recover and heal no matter how complicated or big the things that hold you back may seem. And you can live the life that you want—a life beyond limits.
