I’m very honored to have Amanda share how her life was impacted by her Sister’s Abuse. When sexual abuse takes place in a household by a family member not only does this affect the survivor but the entire family. We were able to speak with Tash in "You are not alone" then in "Conversation with Stan" we spoke about his own trauma and how supporting his wife has had a positive impact on their lives. Now Amanda hopes that by sharing her story it will inspire others to open up and begin their healing journey.

On this episode, we were sooo thrilled to have a conversation with our long time friend Alicia that we didn’t think about any potential audio issues! On the plus side, you get to hear her giggles twice! The content was so great that re-recording would have taken away from the authenticity of our discussion. Our topic of taking control of your own healing was impactful that we needed 2 segments! We hope that you can listen and enjoy our very jovial friend as she shares her very astounding journey of getting to the other side of being healed and tune in next week for part 2! Thank you for your patience with the echos! Links to the Foundations mentioned: https://youniquefoundation.org/ https://h-e-a-r-t.org/
