Description
As your podcast hosts, we sat down with an incredible guest this week. Meet Dallas Knight; an ex-army combat veteran, an intelligence analyst with the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department, and a survivor of a toxic marriage. With her resilience and determination, she found her way back to herself and embarked on a path of healing. Dallas shares her powerful story from serving in Iraq to combating suppressed emotions, and her journey of self-discovery and self-love.
Keeping the conversation centered around understanding ourselves better, we dove into the importance of introspection and self-reflection. Breaking toxic patterns takes courage, and facing our mistakes is integral to our growth and healing. As Dallas shared her journey, we also got to talk about the harsh realities of transitioning from wartime to civilian life and the untold stories of suppressed trauma that veterans carry with them.
This episode takes an unexpected but vital turn as we discuss the impact of trauma on our voice and self-perception, with Dallas opening up about her involvement in the Skull Games - a unique organization committed to combating sex trafficking. She also reveals her plans for a retreat exclusively for female combat veterans, aiming to offer them a safe space for therapy, self-exploration, and embracing femininity. To top it all off, we address the dire need for representation of female combat veterans' stories and the immense importance of empathy and support for survivors of grooming and exploitation. Tune in for some truth bombs and powerful insights in this enlightening episode.
