On this episode grooming, power abuse, and the freeze response that kept me alive. The savior teacher who turns villain at night. The singer who sings in my ear. The one who makes me forget he’s dangerous because the help felt real. Predators know their prey. Poverty, no bio father, born to a teenage mom, broken home. Check, check, check, check. I was a walking target. At 15, I was homeless, no contact with my mother, living out of sink-washed T-shirts at my grandmother’s, attending an alternative school with nothing but poverty and no safety net. 

They all knew exactly who I was: a girl with too much going on to say no.

I froze. Every time. I didn’t know how to stop it. I didn’t even know I was supposed to. This is what grooming looked like in real time. This is how predators find their prey. This is the story I carried for 20 years before I could name it. I’m Talkin To You. I’m Talkin To Me Too.
