🎙️S1 E2: 🖤 The Mother Wound: When Silence Becomes Survival. Never thought I would say any of this.🖤 Trigger Warning:This episode contains personal reflections on trauma, chronic illness, emotional abuse, SA and DV, and survival. Please listen with care and pause if needed. You're not alone.Welcome back to my ruins — I’m Angela, and this is Episode 2 of my podcast. If you’re new here, I’m a chronic pain survivor, trauma alchemist, and someone who’s walked through more than one kind of fire. This podcast is my space to speak freely — to break silences that have shaped me. Today, we’re exploring how to speak your truth after years — maybe even decades — of being silenced, gaslit, or simply surviving.Thanks for listening.
WHY I’M SPEAKING NOW:Not to be an influencer.Not for attention.But because silence almost unalived me — and I know I’m not the only one.IM STILL HEALING...🖤 The pain I buried🖤 The people who disappeared🖤 The years I've lost to no diagnosis, misdiagnosis, and gaslighting🖤 Raising a daughter while learning how to re-parent myself🖤 The silent strength it takes to keep breathing when the world says you shouldn't be here🖤 My timeline of 40 years of events...There are thousands of people living in pain, in pieces, invisible to everyone but the mirror.
If this helps just one of you feel less alone, then none of that silence was wasted.FOR THE ONE STILL IN THE FIRE:🖤 You don’t need to be “healed” to speak🖤 You don’t need to be “fixed” to be worthy🖤 You don’t need a studio to show upStart where you are. Speak when you can.
And if today, all you can do is breathe — I’m proud of you.JOIN ME LIVE:📲 TikTok: @angela_pain_alchemist💌 Blog & podcast playlist:
