In this episode of the Mental Podcast, Michelle and Seth provide space for individuals who have experienced Domestic Violence to share their story. Before sharing these stories, they break down their mental minutes. Seth reviews his time off of work and excitement about the future of Mental Podcast. Michelle discusses getting the first Covid Vaccine and experiencing a tornado warning.
Michelle and Seth begin something that has never been done on the show before. Michelle and Seth have interviewed two individuals, Tonya Winingar and Paul Sanghera. Segments/clips from these interviews were then organized and are discussed on show. This conversation begins around the 18:00 minute mark.
Tonya unpacks what it was like growing up with an abusive father who also happened to be an alcoholic. She explores what it was like being with her mom as she escaped that abusive situation only to find herself spread too thin. Tonya grew up fast and found herself caring for the house and her siblings by age 12 because her mother had to work.
Paul, from Calvary, Alberta, Canada explains that his mother was brought to Canada from India for an arranged marriage. Paul shares how his mother was forced to do things that were against her will including sexual assault of which Paul and his siblings were forced to watch. Further, Paul recounts multiple incidents of physical and verbal abuse by his alcoholic father. Paul reveals what impact this abuse has had on his life. While not in this episode, Paul goes on to become a mindset coach and seeks to help those work through their own trauma.
