Old person here. You never stop working through the abuse. But if you find the one it doesn’t matter. You will always feel safe

This is the best episode. For real. Sierra Dowd is so wise. I've learned a lot from her. This podcast has become a therapy for me at this point, considering the number of episodes that I've watched. Seriously the best, Mal. Thank you so much for making this podcast. I am really hoping that this podcast will reach more audience and get the recognition and attention that it deserves.

One of my Nieces was in an abusive relationship for 11 years , hid it well from myself and others. She joined a Roller Derby club that met twice a week where she met this awesome young woman and they hit it off on a friendship level. She ended up divorcing her abusive husband ( Emotional but not physical ) and moving in with this younger woman. She called me on the phone and asked me point blank if it was okay for her to bring her friend over to meet me. I said sure thing , if she was comfortable , well then so was I. When I met this young woman she was very apprehensive , which I completely understand why , but she had nothing to fear. My Niece asked me if she could have my blessing with her and her friend being lovers . Most definitely I said yes indeed. ( Emily and Devon ) have been Happily married now for 2 1/2 years now , I am really very proud of them and of two other Niece's who have married their girlfriends. Your podcasts are very important , I applaud you guys , absolutely love your Laugh it's very infectious indeed.

Very important conversation to have. It's insane how alot of children who have been abused (myself included). The whole notion that the people in your life that love you really cant protect you....wow. This podcast, you got me crying again overhere🥺

I feel 100% seen here. I was SA-ed and have been in a lot of toxic relationships. I'm still healing and working through my trust issues. I love your podcast :)

Great show. Heavy topic but sooo necessary to talk about and find some one to help you. I've always felt there's no possible way to have a healthy relationship with another person until you yourself are healthy in every aspect. And she made 50 sound old. 50 is the new 35. 😂. Lol look forward to the show. As always thanks for taking us along for the ride. ❤

Oh my, this one resonated so deeply with me. Thank you for sharing your story. I am also a survivor and you just articulated the facts and awareness about how difficult it can be when forming relationships. CBT (cognitive behavioral therapy) has been a practice of mine for 5 or so years now. It has been the holy grail to recognizing patterns and breaking cycles of toxicity. The importance of finding someone who can hold that safe space to talk about things and have balance with is all anyone asks for. I'm still out here trying to find her 😇🥰🧡

I understand what she means by you becoming an open person. I talk about my suicide attempt I had when I was 14, because I was outed. And I feel comfortable talking about it because I feel I can help some other person if I share
