My brain has protected me from remembering most of what you did to me, but I remember parts. Without knowing how I feel and all the pain that you caused me, I've felt a lot of different emotions about what you did.
Emi's journey is one of resilience and transformation. As a survivor of family sexual abuse, she endured unimaginable pain from a young age, molested by a family member over an extended period. For over a decade, Emi kept her trauma hidden, but eventually, she embarked on a path to healing. Her story is not just about surviving but also about reclaiming her life and finding her voice.
In this episode of 'Finding OK', Emi opens up about the profound impact of her childhood abuse on her mental health and the pivotal moment when she decided to disclose her past, forever altering her family dynamics. She recounts the heartache of discovering that her abuser was protected by another family member and the complex emotions that followed. Emi's healing journey led her to create 'Motherful: Powerful Moms, Powerful Topics', a podcast she co-hosts with her best friend Kayla.
Together, they tackle tough social and mental health issues, drawing from their personal experiences. Through 'Motherful', Emi has found a platform to share her story, advocate for other survivors, and build a supportive community.
