There are lots of forms abuse, especially within the confines of the family structure.  It is not just the black eye covered in makeup. That is serious but there are others and in this episode, I shine the light on some of the others and hopefully bring awareness to help you process and heal if you have been subjected to it. 

These include:

·        Emotional or psychological abuse

·        Neglect and Abandonment

·        Spiritual abuse

·        Financial abuse

Abuse is real. Healing is real. Asking for help is an act of courage! If you find this topic difficult because it hits close to home, please seek the support and help of someone who is trained.
