Embark with me, Micah Bravery, as we navigate the raw and often unspoken terrains of trauma, healing, and the pursuit of self-discovery. My weekend, charged with the weight of chemotherapy and a travel schedule, left me drained yet enlightened, especially as I connected deeply with 'Pose' and Angelica Ross's portrayal of Candy. This episode isn't just about the fatigue that follows such trials; it's a candid reflection on my own ignorance and the ongoing battle with personal traumas. From the lingering shadows of sexual assault to the complexity of seeking safety in public spaces, I lay bare my story in hopes to empower survivors and shine a light on how trauma intertwines with learning and growth.As your companion on this journey, I share the continuous effort to heal and become the person I aspire to be. Discomfort around men, a reflection of past traumas, has shaped my interactions in profound ways, leading to periods of celibacy and experiences that underscore the importance of consent and self-care. This conversation stretches beyond individual stories, probing into the universal search for empathy, understanding, and ultimately, happiness. I leave you with a powerful mantra: "Count the cost and make the change," urging resilience in facing our pain and using it as a catalyst for progress. Join us for a session filled with raw emotion and potent insights, and remember, every step toward healing is a stride toward empowerment.
