Today I'm celebrating the 100th episode of the Speak Loud Podcast! I'm recapping some of my favorite episodes so far, and what I've learned in 100 episodes. Thank you to everyone who has reached out and sent messages about how they've resonated with the podcast. This show is for you, after all, so I always love hearing your feedback and ideas. The Speak Loud Podcast is about sharing a message of hope, but we all have to get through the dark parts to reach the light. I've learned how to use my past not as a crutch, but as a stepping stone for my future. After 22 years, my book Throwaway Girl is out this fall, and in that memoir, I cover details from Episode 1 in my own story of triumph and hope. Some of my favorite episodes have been with friends or people in my close circles. In “Speak Up and Speak Loud Against Abuse”, my talk with my aunt opened my eyes to generational trauma in my family. Scott Clover, my dear friend, and somatic healer helps clients remove emotional blockages and connect to their authentic energy in “Intuitive Trauma Healing.”Another one of my favorite episodes was “Why Resilience Matters with Em Capito.” Em was my first TedX speaker, and resilience is one of my favorite words. Resilience is about turning adversity into strength and triumphing over a challenge, which is the message I want to share on the Speak Loud Podcast. Many episodes have been deep-dives into the brain and body after trauma. “How Trauma Affects the Brain with Joe Dennis” is one of the most listened-to episodes, where Joe brings valuable insight from his career as a clinician. “How To Use Creativity to Heal from Trauma with Lauri Schoenfeld” has excellent information for finding a different outlet for your healing. In “Exploring the Complexities of Trauma”, Michelle Binion, certified mental health clinician, enlightens us on why we work the way we do after trauma. I've had great guests whose stories are full of light and hope. Rena Romano, in her episode “Overcoming Shame After Sexual Abuse,” shares how she's become a “sur-thriver” and found endless possibilities in life. If you want an uplifting episode, check out “Giving Sunshine with Jason Clawson.” Jason is a clinical therapist and father whose movement “Giving Sunshine” sends therapeutic care packages to families struggling with grief, illness, and other struggles. Thank you for tuning in and for continuing to believe in the Speak Loud message. As always, you are worthy, you are enough, and keep on shining your light. Speak Loud Podcast on the webSpread the message of Speak Loud Podcast andshare this episode with a friend!***Disclaimer: All content found on Speak Loud Podcast, including text, images, audio, or other formats were created for informational purposes only.

What a joy it was to speak with Rena Romano for the last episode of the season. Rena has gone from childhood sexual abuse to contemplating suicide, from appearing on the Oprah Show to the TEDx stage. She's a respected speaker, author, TEDx coach, and a “sur-THRIVER” of abuse with a mission to show people how to live the endless possibilities of positive life after trauma. Rena's abuse persisted for nearly 20 years, from age 4. At such a young age, she had no language for what was happening to her, and was unable to speak up about what she was going through. When she was older, she knew it would have torn her family apart to speak up, but as an adult reflects that it's not the child's responsibility to stop the crime. Even after escaping her situation, Rena still struggled with abuse in early adulthood. Perpetrators of rape and abuse were like a lion sniffing out blood, sensing when their victims are most weak or wounded. Rena was addicted to abuse, believing it to be what love looked like, and continued to attract it into her life. The Law of Attraction doesn't work unless you put it into motion, Rena says. Having watched Oprah talk with other sur-THRIVERs, Rena was certain she would be on the show. She sent in an email with her story and waited, but even in the 2 years leading up to that call, she spoke and acted like she already knew she was going to be on air--which she did. One of Rena's favorite practices is writing. For 5-15 minutes a day, she would sit down and create her future through writing. She would write about how happy and grateful she was that her TEDx talk had reached so many people, long before it had happened. “Happy is the best revenge,” she says. In overcoming abuse, Rena says to speak about what you've gone through. Survivors have no reason to be ashamed of crimes committed against them. Writing her book, “His Puppet No More”, was like spitting out the last bit of cancer that Rena still carried from her abuse. The more she shared her story, the more healed she was. “Healing begins by telling, but we must make telling safe.” Rena hopes that other sur-THRIVERs listening in know that they are enough and have nothing to be ashamed of. Listen in to hear more about Rena's journey, how she wrote her book, and her advice for success and healing. Resources MentionedJoin Me on Speak Loud PlatformSpeak Loud Podcast on the webFind Rena's services on her website For more information and support, visit RAINN Spread the message of Speak Loudly Podcast and share this episode with a friend!***Disclaimer: All content found on Speak Loud Podcast, including text, images, audio, or other formats were created for informational purposes only.

We are programed to focus on the negative, the crime, and that keeps us stuck in the shame of what was forced upon us. I was stuck for years because of the shame of my perpetrator's crimes until one day I screamed the words; “I am tired of being ashamed of crimes I did not commit!”I know that the years of child abuse played a massive role in my lack of self-esteem and self-worth. However, I was determined to heal those hidden wounds because I knew my story and my journey would help other survivors release the shame that they carry. We did not commit the crime; we must stop doing the time!Survivor to sur-THRIVER®That is when my journey of self-development reemerged, and I came to understand that counseling is extremely helpful but most often it is not enough to help us become the person we are meant to be.

Thank you RENA ROMANO... Author | Activist | Speaker | Coach Veteran of the TEDx Stage and Guest on “The Oprah Winfrey Show” surTHRIVER® and Advocate for Survivors of Child Sexual Abuse and Sexual Assault About: As a sur-THRIVER® of child sexual abuse and sexual assault, I have a unique approach to life, I say our past does define us. Yes, it does! We are looking at it all wrong!!! The problem: Most people, as I did, look at their past trauma and only focus on the negative, the crime, and that keeps us stuck in the shame of what was forced upon us. I was stuck for years because of the shame of my perpetrator's crimes until one day I screamed the words; “I am tired of being ashamed of crimes I did not commit!” I know that the years of child abuse played a massive role in my lack of self-esteem and self-worth. However, I was determined to heal those hidden scars because I knew my story and my journey would help other survivors release the shame that they carry.

Personal healing is one of the most powerful benefits of writing. Rene Romano, childhood sexual abuse survivor, shares in vivid and poignant detail the emotional challenges and rewards of writing her story. She emphasizes that the gratitude of those who had comparable experiences encourages her to share her continuing healing journey through online courses and other forms of outreach. In this episode of Writing to Get Business podcast, Rena shares these key points: The determination to heal gives one the courage to write about trauma. Writing privately with no intention of publishing can also have a healing effect. The knowledge that others will benefit from one’s honesty can help one overcome resistance. Freedom from the burden of secrecy may allow for greater visibility and creativity in shaping a future. Receiving validation for one’s story can open the door to a new career focused on sharing one’s message. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

On the inside she was dying, a broken soul. Harboring a horrific secret since childhood, no one knew the pain she was suffering. Then she chose to become a Thriver: she created and embraced her truth that there is always an upside no matter what you’ve been through. In October 2009 Rena was a featured guest on the Oprah Winfrey Show where she shared her long-kept secret of childhood sexual abuse. She also is a TEDx speaker.  Her TEDx talk is titled “Healing Sexual Abuse can start with one word.”  You can watch her TEDx talk on YouTube.
