Monica Boglin: Finding Strength Amidst Childhood Trauma and Chronic Illness

Once you're in that space where you're stressed-free all of the time, once the negativity begins to show up, you're better able, you're engaged, you have more yourself, more energy, physical energy.
Ever wondered how someone can rise above the shadows of a painful past? Meet Monica Boglin from Puyallup, Washington, who shares her harrowing yet inspiring journey on this episode of 'Stop Child Abuse Now' (SCAN). Monica endured sexual, physical, and emotional abuse at the hands of her own family members. To add to her struggles, she has been living with Lupus, a painful autoimmune disease, since she was 29—a condition often linked to adverse childhood experiences (ACEs).
Monica's story is one of resilience and transformation. She became a life coach and therapist, earning a Master's degree in metaphysical science and counseling, and is now working towards her PhD.
In her words, “I've finally found a way to forgive the unforgivable and to firmly keep anyone and everything harmful out of my life.” In this episode, co-host Annie joins Monica to discuss the lasting effects of childhood trauma and the importance of setting boundaries to protect one's mental health. They delve into practical strategies for dealing with toxic people and the power of saying no.

Her story serves as a beacon of hope, demonstrating that it's possible to reclaim your life from the grip of past traumas.

Monica's journey is a powerful reminder that while we can't change our past, we can choose how it shapes our future.
