You're Not Alone Podcast
Hi, it's Val and Morgan, come along on our journey as we talk about life challenges and insight into living with a disability and or being a caregiver. We talk about all things related to living and understanding life with a disability, and no topics are off-limits.
In each episode, we will explore the experiences, perspectives, and stories of individuals who have faced and overcome the obstacles imposed by disability. Through candid conversations, personal anecdotes, and expert insights, they shed light on the diverse realities of life with disabilities, dismantling misconceptions and fostering empathy along the way.

You're Not Alone Podcast
Julie's Story
This week our guest, Julie, bravely shares her story of lifelong abuse, from childhood to adulthood. She openly describes horrific abuse committed by those who should have only shown her love, becoming dissociated as a parent, developing eating disorders and addictive behaviors, and self-medicating with alcohol. After a near-death experience, Julie found her peace with God and moved forward in seeking help to heal. Julie has found the support she needs within a network of therapies, including speech and occupational therapy, trauma counseling, and group counseling. Julie has recently began sharing her story not only to help herself, but to reach out to other survivors like herself and let them know they are not alone.
