I have spent 30+ years healing from stories that molded me to live a life I didn’t want. A few years ago, I left a 70-hour work week, sold everything, and started writing and sharing my experience of addressing childhood trauma and mental health. That process grew into a powerful community of other survivors whose stories are finally being told. This space is for them.

    Surviving Estrangement (Ep.5)

    Welcome back everyone.  Today, we are doing a deep dive into estrangement. I have found this topic to be widely relatable yet heavily shamed among trauma survivors.

That part of you may need some TLC from you-well deserved. Have a question you want us to cover?

    The Truth About Conversion Therapy (Ep. 2)

    There have been few stories told about conversion therapy from the survivors perspective. In this episode I share my history of going through conversion therapy, and how they ran the organization.  This story highlights the obsession with the abuser-centered society: The stories centering around the people who hurt others, rather than the survivors.  If you are a trauma survivor, listen closely at 22:01 TRIGGER WARNING: This episode mentions suicide, suicidal ideation, and stories around religious trauma.
