Trust Despite Trauma: My Journey Back to the Mic After Domestic Violence
“Domestic violence is any behavior involving physical, psychological, emotional, sexual or verbal abuse. It is any form of aggression intended to hurt, damage or kill an intimate person.”
Rediscovering Connection: A New Chapter for Trust Despite Trauma
Hello, #TDTCommunity.
It feels surreal to reconnect with all of you after a year apart. I’ve missed sharing stories, insights, and conversations we started to build together on the Trust Despite Trauma podcast. Life, as many of you know, sometimes takes unexpected turns, and for me, that meant stepping away to focus on healing from a challenging experience with domestic violence.
I want to take a moment to share where I’ve been and how I’ve been navigating this journey. Leaving the podcast behind was incredibly difficult, especially knowing how much our conversations meant to both of us. But to truly serve our community and be the best version of myself, I needed time to heal, reflect, and regain my strength.
Join #HealingJourney as we explore recovery, resilience, and self-discovery. The Trust Despite Trauma podcast features inspiring stories highlighting healing from struggles.
Rebuilding Trust: The Journey Beyond Trauma
I immersed myself in learning and exploring new healing methods during my time away. I connected with outstanding individuals who helped me understand the layers of trauma and resilience. I found new resources, both written and personal, that illuminated paths toward recovery. Each story I absorbed and every conversation I had reaffirmed my belief in the power of shared experiences.
One of my biggest realizations in this period was how vital connection truly is. It’s what sparked the creation of Trust Despite Trauma in the first place—a safe space where we could come together to share our stories and support one another. The journey through trauma can feel isolating, but I learned that reaching out, whether in small ways or big, can foster incredible healing.
