With scars that stretch from her body to her soul, she shares the battles she’s fought — and the demons she’s defeated — to become the strong, outspoken woman she is today.We talk:Surviving sexual assault and violenceThe aftermath of trauma and finding your voiceWhat it means to raise kids and grandkids after living through absolute hellWhy silence is never the answerAnd the message she has for every woman (and man) in Australia living in fear.This episode is not for the faint-hearted — it’s for the people who need hope. For those who’ve felt voiceless. For anyone who’s ever wondered if they could make it out alive.TRIGGER WARNING: This episode contains explicit discussions of sexual assault, child abuse, and domestic violence.
