Edie Allen has a stunning story of self-recreation. Physically and sexually abused from an early age, Edie ran away from home at 15, cycled in and out of foster care, leaned on alcohol and drugs, and then began to pull herself out of that life with the help of non-traditional healing modalities including Reiki, meditation, intuitive therapy, and every other method that resonated with her soul. With a heart devoted to helping others heal, Edie created a boutique healing practice in 1997 to assist people in a process she calls SHED, SHIFT & SHINE. "Nothing makes me happier than sharing the tools and methods I've learned in my healing journey to help others SHED what holds them back, SHIFT their energy and beliefs to enable them to SHINE like the lights we are all meant to be, which essentially makes the world a brighter place" Drawing from an expansive 30-year career in mental health, personal development, and wellness, as well as her own transformational experiences, Edie is a sought-after life coach, trainer, and educator, having spoken for Lululemon on Empowerment, as well as numerous health and business organizations. She recently joined with Hollywood's elite and Rock Royalty to share her story on stage at Steven Tyler's 2nd annual Grammy Viewing Party Gala for Janie's Fund in Los Angeles, California, helping to raise more than $2.8 million for girls who've suffered from abuse and neglect. Edie is passionate about sharing her story with as many audiences as possible in hopes of letting those who still suffer know they matter, and to inspire them to use their voices as a way of empowering themselves. Using her story as a platform for change, she also hopes to educate and inspire groups, organizations, corporations, churches, and institutions who have an interest in the subjects she specializes in. A Professional Speaker listed with Southwestern Speakers Bureau as well as RAINN's Speakers Bureau (the Tori Amos founded Rape Abuse Incest National Network), Allen is an expert in Personal Development, Empowerment, Transformation, Mindfulness, and Resilience. Show Highlights: I realized that my whole life, I had practiced being invisible and I got good at it. How am I going to make my dreams come true if I'm invisible? —Edie AllenIf we can honor ourselves, we have the capacity to honor others. —Edie AllenI think forgiving is an act of giving love and giving the space to heal. —Edie AllenIf I can feel, then I can deal. And if I can deal, then I can heal. —Edie AllenI love the thought of us being happy on purpose. I choose thoughts that feel a little bit better than the ones I'm having. —Edie AllenI think our greatest responsibility is to recognize that the choices that we make impact other humans. —Edie AllenBeing the best of myself means being conscious with my choices and tapping into how that feels and how it might feel for others. —Edie AllenI believe if we give people the opportunity to heal, they will. —Edie AllenRemorse and shame are very different. Remorse gives me an opportunity to feel bad about what I've done and do something about it. Shame is crippling. There is no power in shame. —Edie Allen Edie's closing thoughts: For me, being whole was thawing out. It was allowing all these pieces of myself to be present and for me to polish them up like a diamond so that I can shine as bright as I can. I love helping people shed, shift, and shine. They can shed the old habits and limiting beliefs, and they can shift their energy and mindset so we can shine like the lights I believe we were all created to be.

Show Highlights: The things that happened to me in my childhood were horrible, but the things that I did to myself in my life were horrific as well. —Edie AllenIt's so important to be conscious in the world. Conscious people don't others and they don't hurt themselves. —Edie AllenI went and learned how to turn my story into something beautiful and meaningful and helpful. —Edie AllenWe can do better at talking to people about our secrets. —Edie AllenIf we're not equipped, we need to do our best to help people find the resources to share their secrets. —Edie AllenTherapy in whatever form you feel connected with is the right form for you. —Edie AllenI love talking about hope. All of the little nudges I experienced were ways to stay connected to hope. —Edie Allen Edie's closing thoughts: I think prevention is about giving people safe platforms to unburden themselves for the things that are troubling them that become things they act out on society.

In this episode of the podcast, I'm joined by author and survivor, Larry Ruhl. Larry’s book, Breaking the Ruhl’s, is his story as a survivor of childhood sexual abuse. Throughout the book he faces the challenging questions. “Is it truly possible to move through the shame I carry every day? Can I have a full life without depending on mind-numbing drugs and alcohol? And the most difficult question of all: Do I tell? But how do I tell? Who do I tell? What happens if I do tell?” Larry Ruhl serves as a board member for Taking Back Ourselves, which facilitates weekends of recovery for female survivors of sexual abuse, and is a registered speaker with the RAINN network (Rape Abuse Incest National Network). He previously served as a board member at Male Survivor. He also spoke at colleges and retreats to increase awareness of sexual abuse against men and boys. Today he shares his story publicly to spread awareness and to help others shed the shame and stigma associated with sexual abuse. He graduated from the Fashion Institute of Technology (FIT), with a degree in Display & Exhibit Design, and worked as a creative director at a textile firm for ten years until opening his own home furnishings/interior design business in 2004. He works as an artist and designer in the Hudson Valley. During my chat with Larry we cover topics including: This memoir is so personal and the story is so painful. How did you find the strength to share your story? Did writing it help you heal? When did you first realize that what was happening in your household was not only not normal, but was physical, emotional, and sexual abuse? You talk about how you’ve found a way to forgive your parents, but that you’ll never forget what happened. Can you speak to that? You’re no longer in contact with your parents, but you are close with your sister, who still lives with them. Can you talk about how you decided to move forward with this book? Now that the book has been released, how has it impacted your healing journey, your relationships, and your life as a whole? Larry shares openly and vulnerably about his life and struggles, and offers such hope and encouragement during our conversation that you can help but be inspired by his bravery and the bravery of all who speak out and refuse to be silent. I’m so honored to have had the opportunity to talk to this incredible survivor and I look forward to bringing him back on the podcast in the future to talk more about his story. Thank you again Larry for your book, your message of hope, and your continued desire to reach those all who have survived the trauma of abuse.

Special guest from Rape Abuse Incest National Network in Washington DC: Sara McGovern, Press Secretary

This is one of those dream shows for us at Edge of Sports. We’ve spoken to Kareem. We’ve spoken to Martina. Now we talk to Mick, as in pro wrestling legend Mick Foley. The hardcore legend is also a militant anti-sexist, a Tori Amos fan, and a national spokesperson for RAINN – the Rape Abuse Incest National Network. We in addition get him to answer whether Pro Wrestling deserves some of the blame for the rise of Donald Trump. To help me, I have my friend pro-wrestling aficionado Damian Smith riding shotgun. Also, in our Choice Words section, I speak about the alarming rise in the use of “Trump” as a racial slur at high school sporting events. Lastly, in the just stand up award, a big shout out to the first US Olympian to compete while wearing a hijab: fencer Ibtihaj Muhammad.—Mick Foley:http://realmickfoley.comhttp://twitter.com/RealMickFoleyhttp://fb.com/RealMickFoleyRape, Abuse & Incest National Network RAINN http://rainn.org/mickfoleyGet Help Online https://ohl.rainn.org/online/‘Trump’ Has Become a Racial Taunt at High School Sporting Events http://thenation.com/article/trump-has-become-a-racial-taunt-at-high-school-sporting-events/Olympic Fencer, a Muslim, Settled on a ‘Sport Without Alteration’ http://nyti.ms/1LdE7bA—http://twitter.com/edgeofsports | http://edgeofsportspodcast.com | http://fb.com/edgeofsportspod | edgeofsports@slate.com--Music: John Legend - Used To Love U (instrumental, Kanye West,) WWE: Wreck (Mick Foley) Theme Song, Winter - Tori Amos, NEDARB NAGROM - "mexikodro listens to american football once" http://soundcloud.com/nedarbnagrom
