The Diary of a Discarded Daughter - Redeeming a Painful Past
Welcome to the Diary of a Discarded Daughter (formerly titled "The Chronicles of the Christian Drama Queen") Diary of a Discarded Daughter is hosted by Lisa Schafer—a woman who has walked through forty years of abandonment, childhood s**ual abuse, and the long, messy road to healing.
This podcast takes a raw, authentic, heartfelt, and often humorous look at the deep wounds left by being unprotected, unloved, and unwanted. Abandoned and abused as a child, Lisa Schafer, Founder of Christian Drama Queen Solutions, shares the wounds that shaped her choices, her faith, and her understanding of God, as well as the healing and redemption Jesus gave her during her 40-year search for answers to painful questions. If you’ve ever struggled to "let go" of trauma or wrestled with bitterness, Lisa offers a seat at the table.
Through candid conversations, spiritual insights, and her signature wit (often at her own expense), Lisa creates a space for women to dig deeper into their walk with Jesus. Whether you're drowning in past pain or just beginning to confront it, she offers encouragement, truth, and an open invitation to get real about the hard stuff—without shame.
Lisa Schafer is the author of two Bible studies on forgiveness:
📖 DISCARDED – A Daughter’s Journey to Reclaim Freedom and Forgive the Father Who Left Her Behind
📖 The Christian Victim’s Guide to Forgiving the Unforgivable
(Both available on Amazon.)
Please note: Lisa is not a licensed counselor, pastor, or mental health professional. She strongly encourages listeners to seek professional care when needed.

Is there such a thing as premature forgiveness? w/Pastoral Counselor, Stacy Echeverria
This is an amazing interview, if I do say so myself.
Recognizing trauma and grieving our loss of relationships, our expectations, our plans, is crucial for the healing process to begin. In this interview, Lisa and Stacy talk not only about understanding the damage that our perpetrators have also lived through, but also about equipping victims to understand the process to forgive. It's not accomplished with a snap of a finger. Where do the wounded begin? Listen now and know.
Stacy Echeverria, a discarded daughter herself, is the founder of True You Ministries. For over 15 years Stacy facilitated The Genesis Process groups for women at her church as well as taking individuals, and couples through the process. She is a pastoral counselor; a Genesis Process Relapse Specialist; as well as holding a Masters in Clinical Christian Counseling from Colorado Theological Seminary. Stacy is in private practice in Southern California.
