Often times when we think "abusive relationship" we think of something very loud & obvious. What we don't consider is the fact that although abuse can turn into something loud & obvious, it doesn't usually start out that way. Majority of the time, it starts off slowly and subtly and builds over time. It can be hard to detect & after being submerged into it over a period of time, it can be even harder to get out of. 

In this episode, I sit down with Kait to hear more about her story and to walk through a heartbreaking season of abuse that she faced in relationships. Kait is not only a survivor of abuse but she has single-handedly seen how her story of abuse was not in vain, but instead has been used to speak into the lives of men and women all around the world!

In this episode, I sat down with Monica Zuniga who bravely shares her story and her experience with sexual assault. Trauma can bring an overwhelming pain that we often don't know how to handle. Monica shares the good, the bad, and the ugly of her healing journey and gives us insight into the one thing that changed it all!
