Listen Later

Episode 011 of Get Naked LIVE™ features Nicole K. Jones, Domestic Violence Advocate. In this episode Nicole shares her story of sexual and physical abuse and how she was finally able to begin the healing and forgiveness process. Nicole gets really transparent about her experience — how long she stayed, why she stayed, how she thought her love for him was enough to fix him and the straw that broke the camel's back, forcing her to accept that LOVE was not enough to fix what was broken in her offender's life.
 
In this episode Nicole K. Jones let's us into some very private areas of her life and how forgiving your offender after sexual and physical abuse set her free from the emotional bondage.
As a survivor of sexual and physical abuse, Nicole is now very cognizant of the subtle signs of abuse.  She now makes it a habit of listening to what people are not saying.  Additionally, as a domestic violence advocate she sows seeds of hope, healing and happiness into the lives of other women who need support in that area.
Some of the episode's defining moments include:
How it felt to be labeled as strong when her life was falling apart
The affects of sexual and physical abuse in her life
How she overcame sexual and physical abuse
What it was like wearing the mask and how she moved on from a facade life
How to recognize the subtle signs of abuse
What it took and how long it took for her to forgive her offender
