This bonus episode returns us to my conversation with Sarene Leeds, host of the Emotional Abuse Is Real podcast. I get raw about my journey, from discovering infidelity through bank statements and phone records to the shocking criminal investigation that ultimately led to me filing for divorce. We explore the significance of open financial communication, emotional abuse, and the power of trust. We also talk about resilience, the importance of therapy, and the supportive network that helped me through. This was not an easy chat, but if sharing my story helps one person move forward in a positive way, it's worth it.
