Holding On and Moving Forward

Episode 4 - When the System Scares You More Than It Helps


Listen Later

In this raw and deeply personal episode, I speak honestly about the fear that came with reaching out for help — and how, instead of feeling supported, I felt judged, watched, and silenced.


This isn’t just about mental illness. It’s about being a parent who needed understanding, not scrutiny. It’s about the moments I felt I let my child down — not because I didn’t care, but because the systems in place made me feel like the enemy.


If you’ve ever felt scared to ask for help, or like you were slipping through the cracks while trying to hold everything together — this episode is for you.
