In this episode, I'm joined by my friend Carol. A resilient spirit who courageously recalled details of the abuse she observed and survived as a child. Her story compels us to try to understand and recognize a child's response when they don't have the words to express the trauma they've experienced. She bravely shares how she has advocated for herself by facing people in her life who perpetuated patterns of abuse. Carol shared that she continues to work on recognizing patterns that show up in her adult relationships. Take a listen to Carol and she shared that she's constantly working to be her best self.
