I was a child when it started, the silence, the abandonment, the things no one believed. For years I wore masks, played roles, and stayed quiet. But not anymore. Each episode is a piece of what I’ve survived, the pain, the loneliness, the soft things that saved me. This isn’t just my story. It’s the sound of survival. If you’ve ever felt invisible or broken… I hope you find yourself here. 🕯️ Content may be heavy. Please listen with care.

    EP 7- The soft things that saved me

    Somewhere along the line, I started to notice small things — soft things — that didn’t hurt. A voice. A melody. A corner of the internet where I didn’t have to pretend. In this episode, I share how I found my voice, how I started creating, and how “Fantasy Wife” became more than a persona — she became my breath.

    EP 6-Every smile I learned to wear was a lie

    When no one sees you, you learn how to become whoever they’ll accept. In this episode, I talk about the masks I wore to survive — the obedient girl, the strong one, the one who never made noise.

    EP-5 Lonely doesn’t even cover it

    After the fire, there was only silence. Not the peaceful kind, the kind that presses in. The kind that makes you question if you even exist. I speak on the loneliness that followed, the shame that lingered, and the hollow ache of having no one to run to. If you’ve ever felt like the world moved on without you, I think you’ll hear yourself here. Content Advisory: The Quiet Between Takes is a raw, deeply personal storytelling podcast.

    EP 4-The fire they lit burned

    This is where the story gets darker. The accusations didn’t stop. Neither did the punishments. In this episode, I talk about the aftermath — the spiritual condemnation, the prayers meant to “fix” me, and the quiet agony of being treated like something evil. This is where they almost broke me.

    EP 3-They called me a witch, I was just hurting

    As a young adult, I wasn’t dangerous. I was just different. But to them, different was enough. This episode peels back the curtain on the fear, the spiritual accusations, the betrayal from women who were meant to shelter me. I wasn’t casting spells. I was trying to survive in a world that decided I was cursed. Content Advisory: The Quiet Between Takes is a raw, deeply personal storytelling podcast.

  9. (Intro) Okay, here goes

    (Intro) Okay, here goes

    Okay. Here goes. No script. No filter. Just… me. Finally saying the things I’ve shoved down for years. Some of it’s ugly. Some of it’s confusing. I don’t even know if I’m ready to talk about all this, but I’m doing it anyway. If you’re here, just… stay. Content Warning: This podcast contains personal stories involving childhood trauma, abandonment, emotional neglect, sexual abuse, and spiritual manipulation. Some episodes include mentions of suicidal thoughts and graphic emotional experiences. I don’t share these things lightly. There are no shock tactics here, just the truth, spoken in my own words. Please take care of yourself while listening. Pause if it gets too heavy. Skip what you need to. Your heart matters more than finishing an episode. 🕯️ This space is tender, but it’s also raw. Enter softly.
