Melanie grew up in a world where faith was law, obedience was survival, and questioning the rules came at a cost. For years, she tried to fit the mold—silencing doubts, suppressing her true self, and sacrificing personal freedom for acceptance. But beneath the surface, a storm was brewing—unresolved religious trauma, addiction, and a desperate need for something real.

This is probably one of the most real and raw podcast interviews I have done. Melanie's story is deep and powerful, and has made her into the amazing and strong woman she is today.
