Episode Description from the Publisher

In this Mental Healness Podcast interview, Manda shares her survivor journey from childhood trauma, addiction, abusive relationships, family scapegoating, and parental alienation to healing, faith, and rebuilding her life. She discusses getting sober, escaping coercive control, navigating complex PTSD, reconnecting with her identity, and learning that she was never the problem people told her she was. This conversation explores trauma bonds, emotional abuse, recovery, survival, boundaries, and what it means to choose yourself after years of chaos. Manda’s message is for anyone who feels trapped, forgotten, or convinced they cannot start over: strength can still be there, even when you feel like you have nothing left.
