Thank you so much. You've been so lovely. Thank you.
Worthy is groundbreaking.
This book is going to change lives. This book literally will teach you how to actually feel worthy so that you can have the strength, you can have the confidence.
I realized for myself that God gave me this purpose and it's really an opportunity to help people.
There was a year when I really wasn't willing to talk to people about it. And then I realized that I need to shift my perspective on this and I need to help as many people as I can. If I'm not willing to talk about this situation, I realize how many other women, how many other men are too scared to have these really, really hard talks.
But if I can be brave enough to speak out, maybe I can help someone else be brave enough to speak out for themselves. I was taken advantage of. I blamed myself for years. I must have done something wrong, and I felt so much shame in who I was. And if I would have just spoke out for myself, maybe I could have built myself back up and helped other young girls too, to not let that happen.
When I had my daughter, I realized that I need to build her up to like, if anything ever happened to her, come to someone, come to me, come to someone you feel safe with and say, this was wrong.
Yeah. And that was a really powerful moment for us. I do not believe for myself that I handled it the right way. And I don't believe that I should have ever felt so much shame for myself. But it was a real feeling that a lot of women feel. And so I wanted to share it with her. And I also think it humanized me to my daughter a lot, that something could happen to me.
And at that moment, I don't feel like I stood up for myself.
Yeah. He was this gentle giant. And anytime he spoke, you just felt like you were learning so much. It was just like an honor to hear him talk. and it was just such a turn on. So the time you remember meeting him, it was love at first sight.
The Glee show he's cast in. Oh my goodness. Okay. It's a very famous arena. And we found some stairs. We ended up on some scaffolding above everyone watching the Glee part of the show. We were literally looking at the performers from Glee and we just started making out and we were looking down, there's all these audience members screaming and cheering, but they couldn't see us.
And there was, I don't know, it was kind of romantic and we started doing the deed and then all of a sudden security was like flashing their lights like, who's up here? And we just froze.
Right above them. Oh, my gosh. It was so dangerous.
Alison Holker. Welcome to the Jamie Kern Lima show. Thank you so much for having me. I'm so excited to be here and you're such an inspiration to me. So I just like, I'm really geeked to have like a moment to be able to get to know you and connect. And so this is truly an honor.
Well, I realized for myself that God gave me this purpose. And it's really hard to deny when someone gives you such an opportunity. And not opportunity because it seems so grand and beautiful, but an opportunity to help people. And I felt like there was a year when I really wasn't willing to talk to people about it.
There was a year where I was just trying to be there for my children, just be a good mom. And I didn't want to share our story. It was too personal. It was too... It was too on the nose for us. It was too real to really have to open up to everyone and share what had gone on. And then I realized that I need to shift my perspective on this and I need to help as many people as I can.
Because if I'm not willing to talk about this situation, I realize how many other women, how many other men are too scared to have these really, really hard talks. And at the end of the day, that's what we need to be doing. That's why we are here.
And it made me realize that God gave me the opportunity to be a voice, to try to help other people to feel safe and to feel like they can reach out to someone and speak about these really, really hard topics. And it's not that I know exactly how to do it. I'm not an expert in this field.
But if I can be brave enough to speak out, maybe I can help someone else be brave enough to speak out for themselves.
yeah i unfortunately but fortunately that's kind of like what's giving me the wings to want to do this because i had so many people reaching out to me um strangers complete complete strangers i do not know reaching out to me on instagram or on twitter trying to explain to me their stories that they've been so hurt in the past from a situation or men that have specifically reached out to me being like i've never told anyone that i have been hurting for so long
