Title:

Episode 10: The Shoot

Description:

After months of surviving courtrooms, exchanges, and silence, I stepped back into the world. I started protesting. I worked with an artisan boutique. And then—I did a photoshoot. Just jeans, a bra, and a jacket.

This episode is about what it felt like to be seen again. To reclaim my body. To remember who I was before the losses piled up.

It was the night I met Eddie.

His motorcycle got stuck in the sand.

Me and the girls pushed it out while he stayed seated.

I didn’t realize it then, but that moment told me everything.

Themes:

• Post-separation trauma
• Maternal identity
• Re-emergence and reclaiming visibility
• Emotional labor and early red flags
• Female embodiment and truth-telling

Content Warning:

This episode includes themes of maternal grief, emotional imbalance in early relationships, and the subtle beginnings of control. If that feels too close today, come back when you’re ready. No pressure.
