Finally Safe: Journey to Self-Worth and Healing

Jacquie King Season 2 Episode 4

In this powerful episode, Jacquie sits down with Michelle—a mother, survivor, and woman in recovery—who shares her incredible story of finding her voice after decades of silence. From childhood trauma and early substance use to surviving sexual assault and navigating a 20-year relationship marked by fear and self-abandonment, Michelle's journey is one of resilience, growth, and radical self-love.
Through therapy, sobriety, and courage, she learned to hold on to her heart—and walk away from what no longer served her. She opens up about the pain of parenting through addiction, the fear of starting over, and the joy of finally feeling safe, free, and authentically herself.

A must-listen for anyone on a path of healing, especially those learning to choose themselves.
