Have you ever been silenced for speaking your truth? Join us for an intimate conversation about breaking through barriers and finding your voice even when others try to quiet it.
Victoria reveals the surprising backlash to her evidence-based book "Dark Dark Who's There," including a cease and desist letter despite her careful steps to change names and redact identifying features. As the black sheep in a narcissistic family system, she shares how speaking truth often makes you "the dangerous one" they try to silence - a reality many of our listeners will sadly recognize.
The conversation takes an uplifting turn as Victoria announces her selection as one of 100 influential women to be featured in "Her Story," broadcasting to 127 countries. This raw, makeup-free telling of her journey overcoming abuse demonstrates that healing is possible at any stage with proper support. We also celebrate the upcoming release of "Dear Silence You Lost" on October 1st - a powerful compilation of survival stories from hundreds of people worldwide who've broken their silence about abuse.
Michael reads one particularly moving letter from the book, written by a son to his abusive father, illustrating how recognizing toxic patterns can break generational cycles. The letter writer's determination to never become like his father resonates deeply with anyone who's witnessed or experienced family violence.
We take a vulnerable detour as Victoria shares her recent surgical experience resulting in hearing loss, including the heartbreaking moment of hearing "I love you" in her right ear for the last time. Her frustrations with medical professionals who made light of her condition highlight the importance of compassionate healthcare and proper advocacy.
Whether you're healing from trauma, supporting someone who is, or simply seeking to understand the journey better, this episode offers both practical wisdom and emotional resonance. Visit our academy through thecontagioussmile.com to access trauma-informed courses, many available for free or minimal cost, designed to guide others through their healing journey.
