This week, Candice Smiley from 'Create The Ripple' Podcast joins us for an unfalteringly real and honest episode about love, abuse, and mistrust in her relationships, and how she finally banished her demons and started to live her life on her terms! In her late teens, Candice was repeatedly sexually abused in a relationship with a man for 2 x years. She found the strength to leave, but the experience would lead her to question her every relationship thereafter, and  begin a spiral of endless doubt and self sabotage. This episode is a true 'butterfly from the chrysalis' story, as Candice discusses taking action to bring her power back into her life. With a new daughter, some significant weight loss, and surrounding herself with the right people, Candice finally started to have positive relationship experiences, and as the self belief returned, true love finally came knocking. It's a wonderful and authentic episode for anyone who has ever been through any kind of relationship, let alone suffered any kind of abuse.
