Lessons in Discernment
Lessons in Discernment is a podcast about healing after emotional abuse—and learning to trust your truth again.
Hosted by Stéphanie St-Jean, a survivor, author and advocate, each episode explores the tender, transformative space between trauma and recovery through storytelling, reflection, and soul-deep conversations.
From EMDR to gaslighting, therapy to self-trust, this podcast is a place to examine the systems we’ve internalized, the language we’ve inherited, and the stories we’re ready to rewrite. Because the most powerful voice in your healing journey is your own.

The Voice They Tried to Silence: Speaking, Remembering and Trusting the Truth
In this episode, I share a story I spent years trying to write in silence—hidden in journals, unsent letters, and notes on my phone. It’s the beginning of my unraveling, and of my return.
From miscarriage and grief to the slow, quiet devastation of narcissistic abuse, I speak the truth I was once too afraid to say out loud. This isn’t polished. It’s raw, emotional, and deeply personal—but I know now I’m not the only one.
If you’ve ever been made to feel too much, too sensitive, or too loud—this episode is for you. You are not alone. And your voice was never the problem.
