Welcome to your era of unpunished joy.

In this deeply personal episode, Marie shares two of her most cherished memories after leaving an abusive coercive controlling relationship: Christmas dinner with her four small children at an emergency DV shelter and celebrating her twins' third birthday with a simple $1.50 box mix birthday cake.

They had very little, and their future was uncertain, but they had something they hadn't been able to count on before then: peace, freedom, and the ability to be happy without the fear of being punished for it.

If you've ever had to rebuild your life after an abusive, controlling relationship, I hope you'll listen to this episode. ❤️

And if you know a woman who is finding her way back to herself, please share it with her. She may need the reminder that life after abuse can hold more than healing and survival. It can hold laughter, peace, hope, and moments of pure, UNPUNISHED JOY!
