This story comes with many warnings. There are descriptions of cruel violence, rape, and trauma bonding.

If listening to this episode becomes too intense, stop and do what is best for you.

This is part two of a two-part interview.

Rebecca Lazzelle is a domestic violence survivor. She is also an author and healer.

When Rebecca contacted me, she said her experience shows the kind of emotional abuse and betrayal that leaves a survivor questioning their reality. It has them losing themselves. They end up carrying invisible trauma long after the relationship ends.

Her relationship with her ex-husband was one-sided at best with him taking full advantage of her desire to allow him to find his way in supporting their marriage. financially. This led to out-of-control financial abuse.

His emotional abuse eventually shifted into physical violence, and she was fortunate he did not murder her.

In her interview, she will tell us about her memoir (What The F*** Was That) which was written about her healing journey and how she supports others who are navigating trauma.
