Rachael

[@Raychillipepper]

Hey everyone, I’m the person in the video. Hello hello (: I want to thank Mark for giving me the opportunity to really tell part of my childhood, a life I tried so very hard to extinguish. All my life, I wanted to be believed and I wanted to grow into someone that not only would be on the track to heal, but would help my son live a life that would never be close to how I experienced mine. When you grow up with parents who are unhealed and damaging to everyone around, you understand (or try to understand) how they would ever hurt you or the people you love. Life has gotten easier and I’m finally in my dream career of being a tattoo artist. Im finally in a place where I can feel my wings open and all my wounds are healed. I may be scarred, but everytime I look at my little boy, I smile and and internally feel myself hold back a cry he wouldn’t understand right now..knowing one day he will watch this video and ask questions. He will watch this and understand why I tried so hard to be better than anything I could’ve ever been offered as a child. Scottie, when you’re old enough and you read and watch this… I want you to know that I love you so very much. You are the greatest thing to ever exist in this world and I hope you get to do whatever you want to do in your life (even if its being in a shark cage to finally meet a great white shark lol). You, my sweet bebae, are the reason I’ve taken every single generational curse that has been given to me and I’ve never been so thankful to be able to dismantle and rebuild something greater than us. You are the best thing, that’s ever been mine. Thank you, Mark. Thank you SWU. Take care and I love you all.

[@ajb.mercado6045]

Hi Raechel, God bless you. ❤

[@elscheib]

You're wonderful and you should be very proud of yourself. I believe it would help your sister to microdose as well, if not macrodose. Shrooms are so beneficial for that. Maybe someday she'll be able to come to terms with what she went through and you both can build the relationship that was stolen from you by the trauma your father caused. Never stop being who you are, you're so incredibly strong and beautiful. ❤️

[@dane2379]

I have never heard such pain and trauma told in such an eloquent way before. There were moments when it felt like I was listening to a poet the only way to deal with such terrible things at that time being to weave the grief into words that sound just as raw as they were genuine.

Yes! Beautifully worded!

[@sheri023]

@@leneo1731 it sounds like she is telling someone else's story. It may be some form of dissociation.

[@shellysara3934]

I know right? We know that her healing has begun because she is able to be matter of fact. Some people have the idea that if someone is able to be articulate, then they must be lying. In fact thee exact opposite is true. When we are well into our healing process we are able to talk about our experiences coherently. Again, Thank you Rachael. 💝💜💚

[@dezzmaan5079]

This woman is a WARRIOR. The strength she possesses is something we should all yearn for. I myself felt every bit of this. She was so articulate in the way she describes her life and her struggles, her traumas. She really paints a vivid picture of her life in a way where even if you don’t have the same trauma or pain… you can feel it. I myself have even learned a thing or two about myself - things I can takeaway from this story and apply to my own life.

[@PrimateProductions]

I wish I had been half as articulate as you were in saying this about this girl! 😊

[@ow3wells]

She is a survivor, she somehow didn’t fold along with all the trauma she has been through.

[@KatelynnWestbury]

I have the absolutely pleasure of calling Rachael one of my good friends. I am so happy to have met her and hearing this makes me realize how truly resilient she is to have gone through dark shit but break the cycle and come out a beautiful person. That takes an insane amount of emotional intelligence that most people can’t begin to comprehend. I love you so much and you’re awesome for sharing your story to help heal yourself and help others . ❤️❤️

[@ariasworld9991]

Rachel seems like she can be beautifully honesty and that really makes her so special of a person. It’s awesome that you are able to be a friend that acknowledges the challenges she faced and who honors her strength. You’re both so lucky to be friends ! Wishing you both great joys.

[@Amar1338]

She’s hyper intelligent. Her comprehension and analysis of her own trauma is just impressive. I believe she’s so ahead of the game where her healing is concerned. In addition; I think she can help many victims of the like hell she endured.

[@Livinlife183]

You know it’s a good interview when Mark barely has to ask any questions. She’s well spoken and articulated. May she thrive in peace.

[@beebee2781]

You remind me so much of my Dad. He was also molested at a young age, as well as being sold as a young boy. He began having many flashbacks when I was born. He was the best Dad, despite the fact he struggled with what happened to him. He broke the cycle and I am so thankful for him. He also helped many other victims heal, because he so deeply understood their pain. We need stronger laws against pedophiles. They do so much damage.

[@Raychillipepper]

Absolutely captivating. Truly one of the best videos yet. Rachael appears to me to be one of if not the most thoughtful, deepest, caring people that you have had on.

[@samanthaquintana7622]

I can not fathom how a parent won’t believe that their child is being molested by their significant other when it is STRAIGHT FROM THEIR CHILD’s MOUTH. It just blows my mind.

[@carolseven3802]

It’s terribly common predators prey on weak, uneducated or undereducated women or woman who were victims as well. An addict who comes with accessible children is a perfect match.

[@berniekatzroy]

Same here. I'm no psychologist, but ik this much, people trick themselves into false realities when all the evidence is there and more often than not people don't do whats right, and the cycle continues.

[@Nkeabands]

It’s really sad

[@BeccaJean415]

I experienced this. My mom's bf used to climb up the 2nd floor to my sister's room, she'd see his face in the window and pee herself scared under the covers. I did not live w/ them. But I've learned that my mother denied it ever happened to protect herself. She just couldn't admit that something she caused could cause her kid pain. To this day, "it never happened". He kept coming back around til he became too unhinged drunk & high. She quickly moved on.

[@bagelman10]

She speaks so artistically. The way she speaks so highly of her son, and passionately about her pain-I can feel that. I hope she finds the peace she so deserves.

[@Trump4prisonxxx]

She speaks like a junkie.

Trauma often resurfaces when a woman gets pregnant or after giving birth. It did for me after I birthed my first daughter. Rachael was more than likely molested straight from the crib.

[@robertaduncan9617]

I am a new subscriber to " Underbelly" and have watched 20 or more of the interviews so far and I must say most of these people tell profoundly moving stories of their histories. I am so moved by their pain and especially their recognition of how they got to where they are. I respect you Mark for giving them a forum to explain their terrible journey in life. I don't think they are exploited in this process but instead find it cathartic to unload the baggage of these deeply hurtful events they have managed to live through. Mark keep up the good work. Those who tell their stories realize this will help them move forward in life if they can cope and heal their hearts. I think it 's therapeutic for them, and God knows how many listeners are helped too.❤😊

I love her articulacy and I love Mark for creating Soft White Underbelly and continuing to run it despite the trials and tribulations of running a KZbin channel like this.

Ahhhh Rachael…. This woman! I relate to so much of what you said, the wisdom you’ve acquired, the pain you feel, the accusations you suffer, the humor you still have, the isolation and anger and everything you have expressed here. But the most poignant is when you stated “IT IS YOUR JOB TO HEAL SO YOU DON’T BLEED YOUR PAIN ONTO OTHER PEOPLE.” Bravo to that. It cannot be stated enough. One day… you will understand that the pain your loved ones have is THEIRS to have. It is their blessing and their honor and their lessons to have. And I say “blessing” because there is absolutely NOTHING SPECIAL about an ordinary life…. You are exquisite just exactly as you are because you chose to heal, journey, grow, and LOVE despite what you suffered through. And that could only happen because you suffered. I love who you are….. I see you…. And I hope you feel the depths of how extraordinary you are! You radiate goodness and love and determination through all of your brokenness. The whole world needs you and people like you.

Thank you for sharing. I found your story very relatable and it definitely validated my feelings. I loved my former stepdad SO MUCH, and he was there for the formative years of my life. He entered my life at age 6 and exited when I was around 21. When I was 18, I came to learn that he had a habit of exposing himself, and that he'd molested several of my friends and coworkers in our high school years. I'm 36 today and I can't get over it. I will never forgive him. I carry so much shame for him. I've purposely avoided and lost contact with friends bc I'm so scared that he hurt them, and that they just haven't told me. The shame is unbearable sometimes.

Damn this got heavier than I was prepared for this morning. As rough as her situation got, her stepsister embraced insanity to escape her reality. There isn't a ring of hell horrible enough for her father.

I agree, but he walks free. He was never tried, but he absolutely should be. There are many victims - get together, get some legal counselling and trauma- sensitive Support for legal actions and accuse the man, bring him to trial! This does not even have very much to do with revenge- but everything with justice and getting things balanced! And also with protecting further girls to become his next victims!

Smart coping mechanism. I pray wellness for her. Great interview. This is disheartening and a tragedy.

Rachael, you precious, beautiful soul. Thank you for bearing your soul for all to see and hear. For so long you set what was best for you aside to hold up those around you. Your energy and love has kept others afloat. I hope and pray that as you continue on your path you allow yourself to shed the pain that's kept you pushing forward all these years so you can see how wonderful life can be. You're a strong, powerful woman. I wish you and those you love the absolute best. Keep putting one foot in front of the other..!! Namaste'

yes. she needed to get it all out. very cathartic

[@siennasleichter7924]

Rachel you are so beautiful. You understand so much more than most people. You see the world for what it is. Hearing your story told in the way you did was a breath of fresh air coming from this channel.

This woman is an inspiration to everyone! You don’t have to become the product of your environment. Her children will be so proud to see what she has accomplished and where she came from when they are old enough to understand. I am sending a cyber hug and love to this wonderful young lady. ❤

[@stephanieclark275]

Thank you ❤ Thank you Mark. These videos help people tremendously. It’s helped me so much to understand my own life and those close to me😢❤❤

Go to the DA and file charges on this evil mofo!

[@jennross6466]

Rachael, you need to report your dad to the authorities in Virginia. He's most probably also sexually abusing his young daughter (your kid sister). Much love and respect to you for sharing your story. Don't hate your sister, love your sister even though she cannot express it to you. Have enough love in your body to forgive her. Forgiveness is the path to healing.💝

Blows my mind that he STILL has family and they don't believe her. I'm assuming she means a wife by that, how can you be chilling with a guy like this. What's going on with fellow women!!???
