Episode 17: A Survivors Journey: Rising from the wounds of trauma to triumph and purpose

In this powerful episode of The Empowered Grief Journey, I sit down with a courageous guest whose healing journey began in childhood and continues to evolve today.

She opens up about the layers of trauma that shaped her early life—from parental divorce and childhood sexual abuse to sexual assault in her early twenties—and how these experiences led her to develop binge eating as a way to cope, protect, and survive.

Now a Hope*Author, she’s writing her first book to share her story and help other women heal their relationships with food, their bodies, and their past. With vulnerability and strength, she speaks to the emotional and spiritual malnourishment so many trauma survivors face, and how intentional healing can help break the cycle.

✨ This episode is a reminder that healing is not about perfection—it’s about progress, faith, and reclaiming your power. 🎧 Tune in for this deeply inspiring conversation.
