46: Indigenous Healer Rising From Childhood Abuse and Mother’s Murder

05 Nov 2025

Description

Walking Tall shares their story of surviving years of extreme physical and sexual abuse inflicted by their stepfather, who targeted them from early childhood. In their small Texas town, religious extremism, white supremacy, and corruption created an environment where children were not protected. Their home became a place of drugs, violence, and child sexual exploitation, while teachers, relatives, and pastors ignored clear signs of danger. When their mother finally tried to expose the truth and escape, she was found dead with injuries that contradict the official claim of suicide. The truth was buried and the people who could have protected them turned away.After a near death motorcycle accident that resulted in a profound spiritual encounter with their mother, Walking Tall chose to transform their suffering into purpose. They are now an Indigenous healer and sound practitioner using ancestral wisdom and embodied healing to help others reclaim their lives after trauma. Their story shows the courage it takes to break generational cycles, honor truth in the face of denial, and create a life defined by healing and love instead of violence and silence.Walking Tall's Socials and Websiteshttps://www.instagram.com/walkingtall888www.chiefwalkingtall.comhttps://taplink.cc/chiefwalkingtallhttps://openmypro.com/doctor/7TgPeYOTtWghkk6kx2w0uO22yD73Resources:RAINN (Rape, Abuse & Incest National Network)24/7 confidential support, online chat & hotline 1-800-656-HOPEhttps://rainn.org/help-and-healing/hotline/NSVRC (National Sexual Violence Resource Center)https://www.nsvrc.orgCrisis Text Line741741The National Child Abuse Hotline800-422-4453https://childhelphotline.org/ChildhelpPrevention education and child abuse intervention serviceshttps://www.childhelp.org/Beyond the Monsters Socialshttps://www.instagram.com/beyondthemonsters/https://linktr.ee/BeyondtheMonsters*Disclaimer: The content shared on this podcast is for informational and entertainment purposes only.
