    Trigger warning: This episode discusses sexually predatory behavior.

    Trust is one of the most important aspects of a relationship. When that trust is violated, it can cause feelings of confusion, hurt,  and anger. This is especially true when the perpetrator is supposed to be a spiritual leader.

    Brandi Lust, a community leader, empath, and resilience coach, bravely shares her story of emotional and sexually predatory abuse at the hands of her spiritual advisor and the long process to get justice for herself and others.

    According to the CDC, there is one divorce in America every 42 seconds. The contributing factors are anything from isolation, financial strain, and political division to domestic violence, lack of communication, and differing beliefs. If things are going badly, you shouldn't feel guilt or shame for wanting to leave.

    We sat down with Christian Family, a twice-divorced, adult child of divorce, divorce attorney who has been practicing for nearly 20 years. She is passionate about removing the stigma from divorce that causes good people to stay in bad marriages.
