Childhood doesn’t always end when we grow up sometimes, the pain follows. How childhood abuse and trauma quietly shape our 20s and 30s, our relationships, our boundaries, our sense of safety, and even the way we see the world. It unpacks the journey from survival to self-awareness, from silence to storytelling. It’s for those who learned to be strong too early, who carried more than they should have, and who are now learning what healing really means.

Listen to our guest, Katrina Collier.
