Last week I shared part one of my first-ever bonus episode - a crossover with Sarene Leeds, host of the Emotional Abuse Is Real podcast. If you missed that, go check it out HERE. You can pick up on part two HERE.

This part of my backstory plays out like a Lifetime Movie...or a country song. It's quite the rollercoaster.

Prefer to listen to this episode on YouTube?

This is quite different content than what I normally share around here, but given that it's a critical part of the journey that's gotten me where I am today, I felt compelled to share this as bonus content for those of you who'd like to get to know me a little better.

Listen to this podcast episode on Spotify.

It's the most I've shared about my story publicly thus far - and there are many details to digest - but if my vulnerability empowers one person to take a step forward in a positive direction, then it's worth it to me.
