In this heartfelt one-on-one, Agusta tells Jan how she climbed out of the darkest headspace imaginable by listening to a true friend and holding on to one healthy outlet at a time.

In this first episode, Jan tells her story. This is the most detailed existing continual account of her abuse, apart from her new book, The Jan Broberg Story, out Oct 4th. She dives deep into the techniques Robert Berchtold used to brainwash, kidnap, and sexually assault her for years. This is a must-listen for anyone looking to get a clear understanding of the predatory mindset and how grooming affects young, absorbent minds.Β

The Jan Broberg Show launches September 6th!
On this show, we are not afraid to have difficult conversations about child abuse and what we can do to help make change. Real, every day people share their survival stories, experts and special guests give insight and advice. Our roundtable discussions take deep dives into pertinent subjects and current news stories.
We believe sharing our stories is therapeutic, giving a sense of freedom from past trauma. Our goal is to bring stories out of silence where abuse hides, to create community and hope for everyone, so all may thrive. The impact will be one of awareness, prevention, and an end to child abuse of any kind.

Our PurposeΒ
Trauma Interrupted with Jan Broberg exists to change the way trauma is understood, discussed, and healed. It is the primary public-facing voice of theβ¦
Β
Why It Matters?Β
Trauma narratives are often fragmented, sensationalized, or oversimplified. Survivors are either ignored or reduced to their worst moments. Trauma Interrupted reframes trauma as a human experience, not an identity, and recovery as a collective responsibility, not an individual burden.Β
The podcast is not just storytelling, it is movement-building media.Β
