We must address the issue of the weight put on the shoulders of mothers when they have partners who should contribute to the running of the family.

We think getting out of the relationship is all it takes. Wrong! It's a long road ahead. Let's build a community of support!
Abusers are very good at spinning stories to make them into the victim. All the while slandering you to build their defense against being called an abuser! That is how they isolate their prey until they have complete control. When you escape, they need to smear you even more! Sometimes recording explosions is the only way to prove you are not crazy and what you know happened did in fact happen. If you're in this situation, please find a way to record your abuse because you will be made out to be the monster and more people than you think will believe them. Sending you love

We often ignore the signals our body is sending to us to tell us that being in survival mode for so long has caused damage. We want to think all we have yo do is fix how we think and process. We forget that we still have to deal with the aftermath of trauma to our physical bodies. Take some time to listen to what your body needs from you! Keep Healing ❤️

This healing journey is not for the weak! And as you grow, there will be people who cannot handle the growth and boundaries that come with that growth. Keep healing anyway!!! --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/tearsandflowers/message
Healing from trauma is necessary. But it hurts! And it's scary! What we forget is that breakthroughs come after breakdowns. Forgive and accept yourself at every level of healing. Give yourself the compassion you should've been given and find yourself pushing through to the other side. Tear by tear, breakdown by breakdown. I know it hurts, keep going!!! --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/tearsandflowers/message
Sometimes we shouldn't be so quick to think the message isn't for us too! --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/tearsandflowers/message
