Play episode

All Shannon ever wanted was the security of a whole intact family, and for three years, Shannon lived that dream. But unfortunately, once Shannon was diagnosed with cancer, her husband’s mask slipped, and Shannon’s lifelong dream became an absolute nightmare. 

It’s a story of addiction, mirroring, generational trauma, victim playing, compassion, surviving, shame, cognitive dissonance, gaslighting, being worthy, physical abuse, disassociation, double lives, lies, financial abuse, legal abuse, trust, patterns, being numb, depression, anxiety, healing, fleeing, abuse shelters, and much more.

*** TRIGGER WARNING – This episode discusses physical abuse in graphic detail. ***
