    Episode 97: What I Wish Others Understood About Chronic Illness

    Eight and a half years ago, my life came to screeching halt. I contracted a dangerous and mysterious virus that “woke up” many other viruses and diseases that were dormant in my body. Since that time, I have fought with all my might to heal. In this episode, I share some of the things I wish others understood about chronic illness. https://themighty.com/topic/chronic-fatigue-syndrome/cell-phone-battery-spoon-theory-fatigue/?

    Episode 95: An Invitation to Be Gentle With Yourself In 2024

    Episode 95: An Invitation to Be Gentle With Yourself In 2024

    A new year is here and my ONE WORD for 2024 is GENTLE.

    I’m learning to offer myself gentleness, kindness, and compassion.

    If I would not say something to a good, safe, and trusted friend, I should not say it to myself.

    I invite you to join me on this journey.

    Episode 94: Jimmy Hinton: What Forgiveness Is/Not

    In Episode 6, Jimmy Hinton shared some of his story. In this episode, we unpack what forgiveness is and what it is not. Too often, the burden of forgiveness is placed on the shoulders of victims while abusers are not held to account. We hope that this conversation brings hope and healing to many.

    Episode 93: Tom Pryde: Signs of a Repentant Abuser

    Tom Pryde (Psalm 82 Initiative) and I discuss the true signs of a repentant abuser. I share this resource with survivors every week and it was meaningful to talk through the seven signs with Tom. From Psalm 82: A Letter on Showing Repentance https://psalm82initiative.wordpress.com/2019/07/06/a-letter-on-showing-repentance.

I love discovering a new podcast that shines the light on domestic abuse. Heather is a fabulous interviewer, helping her guests feel comfortable to share the hard of their stories and hope of healing from the one who harmed them.
