Listen Later

Trigger Warning: This episode contains discussions about domestic abuse, emotional trauma, and financial control. Listener discretion is advised.


In this powerful episode of Judging Meghan, I sit down with my dear friend, Vicky Edwards, who opens up about her courageous journey through domestic abuse and the emotional, financial, and psychological toll it took on her. Vicky shares the subtle beginnings of manipulation, the isolation she faced, and the pivotal moments that led to her breaking point. Her raw honesty is a testament to the strength it takes to not only survive but to rebuild from the trauma.


Vicky’s story is one of resilience and reclamation of power, showing that even in the darkest times, there is hope. We discuss how the support of close friends, community, and a strong network can make all the difference, and how she’s now giving back by helping others heal. Vicky also shares the inspiration behind her podcast, Life After Divorce, but Funnier, and the trauma support group she co-founded, both of which aim to provide a safe space for others on their healing journeys.


If you’re navigating the aftermath of trauma or heartbreak, this episode will serve as a reminder that you are not alone and that healing is not only possible, but it can lead to newfound strength and purpose.


Tune in to hear Vicky’s inspiring story of survival, strength, and transformation. And for more, check out her podcast with Jackie Miller: Life After Divorce, but Funnier.
