I feel like there's this unrealistic standard of what your sex life should be in a relationship or in a marriage, and media does such a good job of exaggerating those things...It's so unrealistic to live up to those things.
Corina Rowley’s story is a raw and heart-wrenching testament to the resilience of the human spirit. In this episode of the Hard Knocks Podcast, host Jourdan Watts sits down with Corina to discuss the harrowing abuse she endured throughout her childhood and its lasting impact on her adult life. For 13 years, Corina faced physical, sexual, emotional, and mental abuse, experiences that deeply affected her ability to form intimate relationships as an adult.
But this isn't just a story of suffering; it’s one of triumph and healing. Corina opens up about the challenges she faced in setting boundaries and overcoming infertility, all with the unwavering support of her husband. She candidly discusses how media often sets unrealistic expectations for sex and relationships, and how she learned to navigate these pressures. Beyond her personal struggles, Corina shares her journey toward healing and the liberating power of forgiveness.
The episode also touches on lighter moments, including family traditions, self-care routines, and even some favorite outdoor activities. Whether you’re dealing with similar issues or simply looking for a story of hope and resilience, Corina’s journey offers valuable insights and inspiration.
