Social media sensation and powerhouse singer-songwriter Alex Warren joins the Lautners to discuss his challenging childhood that made him who he is today as a friend, partner, and artist. Alex lost his father to cancer at the age of 9, and his mother a few years ago to addiction. He suffered emotional and physical abuse at the hands of his mother, before being kicked out at the age of 18.

Despite millions of followers tracking his every move, he’s opening up now like never before in his music. In addition to sharing his childhood with us, he opens up about current family dynamics with his siblings, his outlook on death, and the most cathartic song he’s ever written.
