Trigger Warning - This episode contains the topic of Childhood Abuse...The Yearbook Journal ❤️
SUMMARY: The conversation features Reverend Cheryl discussing her experiences with childhood trauma, including living in a chaotic environment with an abusive father and a depressed mother. *She emphasizes the importance of recognizing and addressing abuse, understanding forgiveness, and setting boundaries. *The dialogue explores the complexities of healing, the role of faith, and the necessity of confronting abusive behavior while also finding strength in God. *Reverend Cheryl shares insights on how to support women in violent situations, the significance of therapy, and the importance of community support. *Ultimately, she highlights that healing is a lifelong journey involving layers of understanding and growth, and encourages women to assert their identity in Christ to reclaim their voices and establish healthy boundaries. PODCAST INTRO: The ministry of my guest, Reverend Cheryl Kincaid, focuses on giving voice to Christian women caught in violent situations and relationships, aiming to help them find wholeness and healing through God's instruction. Using her personal story of abuse combining that with her education in Marriage and Family Therapy along with her Master of Divinity from San Francisco Theological Seminary, Rev Cheryl talked about understanding abuse, boundaries, identity, righteous anger, and forgiveness as taught in the bible. The discussion on forgiveness alone was worth the conversation because so much about God's love and forgiveness has been hijacked with a toxic empathy that is used against tender hearted, conscious Christians especially the abused. We talked about the difference between forgiveness and denial. Reverend Cheryl states that forgiveness requires acknowledging the hurt caused by others and making a conscious decision to forgive, while denial involves minimizing the impact of the abuse or rationalizing it. One of the tools that Rev Cheryl shares is for the moments when you're having a flashback, you've been triggered or trying to resolve inner, emotional mental conflict in yourself. She shares this exercise, the therapeutic term known as classical conditioning and it involves using your dominate hand to represent yourself as the adult you are and your non-dominate hand as the child you were. Using your dominant hand you write down something like, I know you're in pain right now and Using your name, you ask yourself by writing down, what is going on? Then Using your non-dominant hand write down your emotions. There is a point to using your non-dominant hand because it looks like a child's handwriting. Then Looking at the emotions that surfaced you use your adult hand (that knows the truth about where you are now) to comfort your child hand (that is bringing forth the emotions that are connected to the pain). Reframe the emotions with truth whether it be with God's word/His promises, with facts such as Rev Cheryl said things like, You couldn't take care of yourself then but you can take care of yourself now and then you'd list truths. If it was about money, it could be, I have a job, I have a bank account, I'm working toward financial independence. If it was about not having control then say, I have control over myself, I'm responsible for myself, I am learning to set boundaries, I have boundaries in place etc Things that speak truth over where you are today. To me, I thought it was effective using your hands because it gets you outside your head. I think that would be beneficial because sometimes you have so much emotion and overwhelm in your head that if you can make it external, it seems to help you isolate and sort through your emotions in that moment. It reminds me of the effectiveness of journaling as a way to purge your thoughts on paper, it gets everything you can list out of your mind and you can sort through it that way too. So in short, us the classical condition exercise to take what you're believing based on your past and updating it with the truth of where you are today and where you're headed, toward wholeness and healing. And even if your current answers for today (as the adult) are not in your favor with regard to healing and wholeness it gives you a starting point, it helps you pinpoint the fact you need to take action. One of the things we didn't get a chance to talk about is that Rev Cheryl is an author of several books. Her stories are inspired from witnessing God's redemptive grace in the messy reality of authentic life for Christian's, including her own. In her stories she's not afraid to address violent issues that many women find themselves in. Using realistic life situations she reveals the heart of God, His love, care, concern, ability to heal and restore despite the brokenness of this life. Be prepared to stop this audio along the way so that you can digest what she is sharing; which is practical advice and things you can immediately implement to move from being a victim to becoming victorious!

Why He Did What He Did: Life Trauma Led to Danger. At just 12 years old, Nate was sexually abused by someone his family knew. "I didn't even know what sex was at that time," he recalls. "I hadn't had the talk with my parents, and sex education wasn't even a thing in my school yet." Like many survivors, he was manipulated into silence. "The attacker told me it was normal, and he threatened me, told me not to tell anyone. So, I didn’t." Follow the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast on Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, Newsbreak, Medium and most all social media platforms. He shares the story on this episode of the "Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast", which is available on their website for free in addition to Apple Podcasts and Spotify, as well as through other podcast platforms. "I kept it buried for so long, but it affected everything, my choices, my safety, my entire world." These are the words of Nate Lewis, our guest on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast. His story is one of survival, resilience, and a fight against the darkness that nearly consumed him. Read supporting stories about this and much more from Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast in platforms like Medium, Newsbreak and Blogspot. The Hidden Trauma of Childhood Abuse, Why He Did What He Did: Life Trauma Led to Danger. For over two decades, Nate carried this secret, the trauma festering in silence. It wasn’t until his life started to spiral out of control that he finally told his mother. "I thought I had it under control, but in reality, it was controlling me. My relationships, my career, my choices, everything was affected." Follow the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and podcast on Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, Newsbreak, Medium and most all social media platforms The Tragic Reality of Child Sexual Abuse The statistics are staggering. More than 550,000 children are known to U.S. authorities as abuse victims. In 2022 alone, an estimated 558,899 unique cases of child abuse and neglect were reported. Child welfare agencies investigate over 7.5 million children annually, with nearly 3 million cases warranting further action. The interview is available as a free podcast on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and podcast website, also available on platforms like Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and most major podcast outlets. Child victims often remain silent for years, or even lifetimes, due to fear, shame, and the manipulation of their abusers. "Most abusers aren’t strangers," Nate explains. "Over 90% of victims know their perpetrators. It’s why so many children don’t speak up, they’re afraid, confused, and often still care about the person hurting them." The Dangerous Path of a Survivor, Why He Did What He Did: Life Trauma Led to Danger. Nate’s silence led to self-destructive behaviors. "I drank excessively. I put myself in dangerous situations because I didn’t care what happened to me." One of those moments nearly cost him his life. Check out the show on Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, Newsbreak, Medium and most all social media platforms "I was abducted at gunpoint during a gang initiation in Los Angeles," he recounts. "At that moment, I realized I had made myself an easy target." Trauma had led him there, to the brink of death. His ability to escape that life-threatening encounter changed everything. "It woke me up. I knew I had to take control of my life, face my past, and use my experiences to help others." From Survivor to Advocate, Why He Did What He Did: Life Trauma Led to Danger. Today, Nate Lewis is the Founder of The Innocent, a nonprofit dedicated to combating child sex trafficking, exploitation, and sexual assault in the U.S. His extensive work with law enforcement and global anti-trafficking organizations has made him a powerful advocate for change. It is available as a free podcast on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast website, on Apple Podcasts, Spotify and most major podcast platforms. "Survivors don’t have to be defined by their past," Nate emphasizes. "Yes, trauma changes you, but it doesn’t have to destroy you. It can shape you into someone stronger, someone who fights back." The Innocent team includes active-duty officers specializing in online investigations, surveillance, and undercover operations. "We provide law enforcement with cutting-edge training, technology, and operational support," Nate shares. "Our goal is to increase arrests, improve conviction rates, and ultimately, save lives." Breaking the Silence, Why He Did What He Did: Life Trauma Led to Danger. Nate’s story is a powerful reminder of the lasting effects of childhood trauma. "What happened to me led to years of self-destruction, but it also led me here, to fighting for justice, for prevention, for healing." By sharing his story on platforms like Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Facebook, and Instagram, Nate hopes to reach others who are still suffering in silence. "If I can help even one person break free from their past, then it’s all worth it." If you or someone you know is a survivor of child sexual abuse, there is help. You are not alone.

Hosted by writers Emma Atkinson and Jordyn Reiland, RadioEd is a triweekly podcast created by the DU Newsroom that taps into the University of Denver's deep pool of bright brains to explore the most compelling and interesting research coming out of DU. See below for a transcript of this episode. This week, production assistant and DU graduate student Madeleine Lebovic steps in to host. Show Notes When Hollywood paints a picture of childhood, it's often one of nostalgia-tinged wonder. Playing outside, moments of carefree innocence and the highs and lows of the adventure of self-discovery. But this is not the childhood that everyone experiences. For many, childhood was a place of uncertainty and fear. And when those kids grow up to become parents, those hard realities can impact their own parenting. How can we break those cycles of intergenerational trauma? This week on RadioEd, Madeleine Lebovic chats with Associate Professor of Clinical Child Psychology Angela Narayan about the surprising science behind reflecting on positive childhood experiences – and how it can help parents counter childhood adversity. Angela Narayan, PhD, LP, is an Associate Professor in the Clinical Child Psychology PhD Program in the Department of Psychology at the University of Denver (DU). She is also an Adjunct Assistant Professor in the Department of Psychiatry at the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF). She received her PhD in Clinical Child Psychology from the Institute of Child Development at the University of Minnesota and completed a predoctoral internship and post-doctoral fellowship in the Department of Psychiatry and Child Trauma Research Program at UCSF. Narayan directs a program of research that examines how childhood adversity and positive childhood experiences have enduring effects on development across adolescence, adulthood and parenthood. She is particularly interested in understanding intergenerational pathways of adversity, psychopathology, and resilience in populations with diverse backgrounds. Narayan is a licensed clinical psychologist in Colorado and a clinical supervisor in the Center for Child and Family Psychology (CCFP) in the DU Department of Psychology. Her expertise is in trauma-informed therapies (e.g., Child-Parent Psychotherapy, Trauma-Focused Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy) and relationship-based and parent-focused treatments (e.g., Parent Management Training, Interpersonal Psychotherapy). She also directs the DU Department of Psychology's PROTECT Lab where researchers study the intergenerational transmission of risk and resilience across families and generations.
