TRIGGER WARNING - Confronting Trauma: A Deep Conversation on Sexual Abuse, Drug Abuse, and Healing

In this raw and heartfelt episode, I sit down with a close friend, Jorid, to discuss profoundly challenging topics such as sexual abuse, drug abuse, destructive thoughts, and the consideration of suicide.

Our conversation covers her experiences growing up with familial instability, the underlying trauma from sexual molestation by her father's stepdad, the impact of not being believed by her family, and her subsequent descent into drug abuse. Despite the triggering nature of today's topic, we aim to provide comfort, show that no one is alone, and highlight the importance of self-love and resilience. If you find yourself in a challenging place, we hope this episode brings value and understanding.
