On this week's episode of The 1 Girl Revolution Podcast, we welcome Elza Spaedy, founder of Healed and Restored—a nonprofit organization dedicated to helping women and girls who are survivors of abuse, trafficking, domestic violence, and other forms of trauma.

In this powerful crossover episode, I had the fantastic fortune to join forces with the hosts of the What They Don't Say: Sexual Assault and Everything in Between podcast for a special pod-share episode. It was an incredible opportunity for all of us to come together and share our unique perspectives on the journey of healing and justice after sexual assault. I've been following Shannon and Lauren's work for a while, and it was great to finally connect and collaborate. Their podcast offers such an unfiltered, raw approach to discussing trauma and healing, and this episode felt like the perfect chance to amplify that conversation. Shannon and Lauren dive deep into the realities that survivors face, from the emotional weight of trauma to the exhausting process of navigating the court system. They tackle what it really feels like to live with the aftermath of these experiences every day, and they aren't afraid to pull back the curtain on the messy, unglamorous parts of healing. Their no-holds-barred approach makes it clear that this isn't about sugarcoating anything—it's about talking honestly, without filters, and giving people the space to relate to the tough moments. In this episode, we come together for a candid conversation about the challenges we've faced and how important it is to keep sharing these stories, even when it's uncomfortable. We touch on the toll trauma can take on our lives and relationships, how the legal system can sometimes fail to offer the justice that survivors deserve, and the importance of community as a part of the healing process. It was truly an honor to share this unique episode with Shannon and Lauren, and I think you'll find it's a conversation that's real, heartfelt, and incredibly important. Whether you're a survivor, a supporter, or someone seeking to understand more about the realities of sexual assault and healing, this episode offers valuable insights and a reminder that you're not alone.

In this episode, we're discussing the disturbing and suspicious death of Virginia Giuffre — the brave Epstein survivor who was hit by a bus and then somehow "committed suicide" just before the long-awaited Epstein files are allegedly set to be released (if they even still will actually be released). We'll talk about the uncomfortable reality that the powerful pedophiles running our world will silence anyone who speaks too much truth. Especially someone like Virginia, who recently made it very clear that she was not, in any way, shape, or form suicidal. It's just as sketchy as the narrative they tried to sell us about Jeffrey Epstein "killing himself." We're calling out Pam Bondi and Kash Patel, reminding everyone that we need to keep the pressure on and demand the release of the Epstein list. No more delays. No more coverups. Justice must happen. People are hurting and dying. More victims are being created as we speak. RELEASE THE EPSTEIN LIST NOW.—https://policecoffee.com/?gad_source=1&gbraid=0AAAAACG7qmLPi4XTBtcEwqw0AV5PQz9p2&gclid=CjwKCAjwq7fABhB2EiwAwk-YbJ9BoXBJCEjmlTyoQoN6_6WSRBo5TXaqMTFYWxhn3JIizBJbEHtVYRoC-tcQAvD_BwE

In this episode of Sex&Bacon, I'm joined by the incredibly brave Katey Rickert for a raw, unfiltered conversation about healing after sexual assault, reclaiming power, and the long, winding road of recovery. Katey opens up about her personal story—one that is heart-wrenching, courageous, and deeply human. Together, we unpack the dark aftermath of trauma, the complexities of consent, and how writing, movement, and connection helped her return home to herself.

I have listened, on and off, to the Dear Katie: Survivor Stories podcast for several years and had it in the back of my head that doing a podshare episode with her might be something that both our audiences might find informative and enlightening. So, with nothing to lose, I sent off an email asking if this was something she might be interested in. She responded that she thought it was a great idea—here's that episode! This was recorded in the fall of 2024, so some of the references made might be a tiny it outdated, but the content of the episode is, and will be forever, vitally pertinent and ageless! If you want to hear a slightly different version of this same episode from the Dear Katie: Survivor Stories podcast that aired on March 6, 2025, the link is listed below. Her producers edited this mutual interview a little bit differently than I did. For those of you who don't know Katie: Katie Koestner appeared on the cover of TIME Magazine at age 18 as the first to speak out as the victim of “date rape”, talks with survivors of sexual assault, rape and abuse about what they went through and how it impacted their life afterward. Katie delves into backlash, legal systems, campus reactions, family and friends, mental health, PTSD, substance use, body image, and the journey from hurt to healing and thriving. (Cite: Dear Katie Podcast home page: , copied 18 March, 2025.) I think you'll find this episode extremely informative, as we both describe our sexual assault and rape experiences as well as the impacts each of us endured, and how our healing journeys started and have progressed. And you'll hear our mutual responses to being made aware of each other's stories…it's quite the episode, I think you'll agree. This was a true pleasure and honor to do with Katie, and I am thrilled and honored that she agreed to do this with me! Thank you for being a SASS listener.

And as always, listed below are some additional important and meaningful websites I hope you'll take a look at and learn more about.  You'll also notice in this episode that there are ads placed at the beginning, middle, and end of the episode to help bring attention to Arci Grey's Survivor School, an organization in which I play a part as both a Masterclass Presenter, and as a member of the Survivor School advisory panel.

What if healing after trauma wasn't just about survival—but about creativity, reclamation, and transformation? Today's guest, Marlee Liss, is living proof that healing can look radically different than what we've been taught. After experiencing sexual violence, she was thrown into the justice system and quickly realized something: the traditional punitive approach wasn't leading to healing—it was retraumatizing. So, she did something groundbreaking.Marlee became the first person in North America to advocate for and successfully secure a court-ordered restorative justice process, requiring her assailant to undergo mandated therapy instead of incarceration. Through this process, she proved that true justice isn't always about punishment—it can be about deep, lasting accountability, healing, and even transformation.This is the second episode in my series on using creativity to change the world—because creativity isn't just for art. It's for how we think, how we heal, and how we rebuild broken systems.✨ From this conversation, you'll learn:The radical question that changed everything for Marlee—and how it can change your life, tooWhy the justice system often fails survivors—and what a real, healing alternative looks likeHow creativity can be used to solve even the world's toughest problemsThe surprising key to true healing: reclaiming joy, pleasure, and personal freedom-Remember to subscribe/follow the show on Apple Podcasts, Spotify or wherever you get your pods.

Memorable Quotes

Pam Bondi said she had it. Then she said it was coming out at 8 AM. Then… nothing. Now, she's in hiding, refusing to address why the long-awaited Epstein list is still being kept from the public. But she's not the only one responsible for this sham. The new FBI Director, Kash Patel, and even Donald Trump are complicit in this failure to deliver the truth.And let's talk about those so-called “Conservative” influencers who turned the Bondi binders into a circus act. Handing out redacted files full of nothing but black ink wasn't a win—it was a total disgrace. They gamified children's trauma, treating the horrific abuse of minors as a political spectacle instead of demanding real justice. Rather than doubling down on their wrongness, they need to admit they got played.So, WHERE OH WHERE  is the Epstein list? Why are we STILL waiting? And who's actually protecting the predators? We're getting into all of it—no spin, no excuses, just Uncommon Sense.--https://noblegoldinvestments.com/

Are guys sometimes victims of covert narcissism? Absolutely! This is not a gender issue.Female covert narcissists are incredibly destructive. In this story, Todd tells his story of dealing with his covert narcissistic wife and how a glance back at his childhood showed how he was primed for this relationship from the beginning. He was in an abusive marriage and didn't know it. This behavior and the feelings he was having were normalized from his upbringing, so the red flags didn't go off. He just accepted it until he just “woke up.” I am Renee Swanson, and I help people recover from covert narcissistic abuse.

In the series of Survivor Stories, Wendy shares her story of a long-term marriage full of betrayal. From very early on, her husband had an affair and left her. She fought for the marriage because she didn't want her son to grow up in a split home. This happened a second time during their son's young life. However, the third time he left for an affair, she let him go.    After 30 years of this, it was time to find some healing. She went to a therapist and said: “I don't understand. I have all these cards from him that say, “I love you. You are the rock of the family. You're my best friend. I don't ever want to live without you. I can't wait to grow old with you.” All the while he was having affairs. Would you consider this mental abuse? She said, Yes!”   Thus began her journey of healing!   I am Renee Swanson, and I help people recover from covert narcissistic abuse.

Rodolfo Caro (formerly Bhajanjeet Singh) became a KY instructor in 2004 and integrated his home, family and spa business into the lifestyle brand of promoting KY and Sikh Dharma over the next 18 years in Guadalajara Mexico. He was even a IKYTA Mexico board member until 2018  when he began to disconnect from his local sangat community because of incongruency. In 2020 when the book Premka came out he began to confront the dark side of KY for real.  After the Beyond the Cage FB group, reading the AOB report, listening to the UCpodcast, and all the material that became available, Rodolfo began deprogramming and figuring out his own practice, totally removing himself from KY Cult. He's a Bodyworker and massage therapist and Spa owner of Canto Yoga & Spa in Guadalajara México. He's a content creator for health and mind and has collaborated in 2024 as a book translator for "Under the Yoga Mat" spanish versión for Latin America. He's the Co-Creator of the youtube channel for the continuity of conversations in spanish, for uncomfortable conversations podcast. Ivan Sanchez (Siri Om Singh) was in the KY Cult from 2006-2021. He was a kundalini instructor for 11 years, taking his first teacher Training by 2009. His mentors were Tarn Taran Kaur (USA), Shiv Charan Singh (PORTUGAL) and Gurujodha Singh (Mexico) at RaMa Kundalini Yoga school in Mexico City. As an instructor he achieved level II certification in his training as a Kundalini Yoga teacher. He was a member of ATA (Aquarian Teachers Academy) training as a leading trainer to teach courses and training for future teachers. In 2020 he discovered the book White Bird in a Golden Cage by Premka and also came across the book Trust All For Nothing, my time saving Yogi Bhajan by Wahe Guru Kaur and seeing himself reflected in many of the statements of physical and psychological abuse that he finds in these documents, he decides to investigate and realizes that there are thousands of people around the world raising their voices and talking about abuse within the so-called Kundalini Yoga community led by 3HO and KRI.Not finding support or coherence in many colleagues, students and teachers in Mexico at that time, he makes the decision to renounce his titles, his classes, his lifestyle and the community. From that moment on, he uses social networks to make complaints and support people who are realizing the manipulation that exists in the "white sect" as he usually calls it. Ivan has been attacked by people who consider that he is harming the community and the teachings of Yogi Bhajan, however that does not stop him from continuing to raise his voice and helping more and more people to realize the deceptions and manipulation into which they can fall by the misnamed Kundalini Yoga community.Currently, after a process of therapy and with the help of his partner and great friends, he's managed to heal many emotional wounds. He decided to continue raising his voice, because after 4 years, the current Kundalini Yoga teachers continue to give classes and hold teacher training sessions as if nothing had happened, and that seems extremely dangerous to me for people who are looking for something to feel better about themselves. For this reason, he has partnered w/ Els Coenen and Rodolfo to share information in Spanish in Mexico and Latin America since a lot of guidance is needed due to the language difference with regions such as the United States or Europe.UC Podcast Episode 48: Siri Om Singh; Mexico City, Mexico (Started KY 2006 - 2021)Book link to Under the Yoga Mat: The Dark History of Yogi Bhajan's Kundalini Yoga Abuse in Kundalini Yoga Website GuruNischan is a writer, pleasure activist, and consultant in personal reinvention for unorthodox high achievers.

Could a shocking connection between a notorious murder case and a Latin American boy band really be more than coincidence? Buckle up for a wild ride through the Menendez brothers' case, where secrets from the past collide with modern accusations, painting a disturbing picture of exploitation and cover-ups. In the 1990s, the Menendez brothers rocked the world with their scandalous trial, claiming they murdered their parents due to years of alleged abuse. But hold on—there's a bizarre twist to this story. Enter Roy Rossello, a former member of the iconic boy band Menudo, who recently accused the band's manager, Edgardo Diaz, of abuse. Rossello's shocking claims extend further, alleging that Jose Menendez himself was involved in this horrific abuse. As Rossello details a disturbing connection between Diaz and Menendez, suggesting that he was delivered to the Menendez home for abuse, the story takes a turn into deeper, darker waters. With Rossello's accusations gaining traction and a new docuseries exploring these links, it raises questions about potential cover-ups and systemic issues within the music industry. The broader implications of these revelations touch on a troubling history of exploitation in the entertainment world. If Rossello's claims are validated, they could provide unexpected validation for the Menendez brothers' defense, casting a new light on their story and the horrors they endured. How do these new developments shift our understanding of both the Menendez case and the music industry's hidden underbelly? #MenendezBrothers #RoyRossello #EdgardoDiaz #Menudo #JoseMenendez #MusicIndustryAbuse #Exploitation Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

Dr. Jimmy Ware's life took a dramatic turn on October 23, 1983, when he found himself at the center of the medical rescue efforts following the Beirut barracks bombing, a bombing that took the lives of 241 U.S. servicemembers in one of the largest non-nuclear explosions in history. As one of two dentists stationed in Beirut, Dr. Ware played a critical role in the aftermath of the attack. On the morning of the bombing, he and Dr. Gil Bigelow managed the entire medical response, drawing on their preparedness from a mass casualty plan devised by their friend, Dr. John Hudson. Later that day, Dr. Ware visited the bomb site and grasped the enormity of the devastation. His meticulous work, including the recovery of dental records from the ruins, proved essential in the identification of the fallen. Today, Dr. Ware shares his poignant and powerful story as part of our limited series: Beirut Survivors. A native of Savannah, Georgia, Dr. Jimmy Ware earned a Bachelor of Science in Biology from Emory University in 1978 and a Doctor of Dental Medicine degree from the Medical College of Georgia in 1982. Upon graduating, he joined the Fleet Marine Force, 2nd Dental Battalion at Camp Lejeune, NC, and later deployed to Lebanon with the 24th Marine Amphibious Unit as part of a Multinational Peacekeeping Mission. Over the course of his distinguished career, Dr. Ware received numerous decorations, including the Legion of Merit, Bronze Star, Navy Meritorious Service Medal, and Combat Action Ribbon, among others. His contributions in Beirut, both before and after the bombing, demonstrate his deep commitment to his teammates and his profession, leaving an indelible mark on those with whom he served.

In this special episode of Narcissist Apocalypse, we re-release an archived episode from 2019 about the covert narcissism of Ross Geller from Friends. We are delayed in releasing this weeks new Survivor Story until Tuesday, so hopefully this will tide you over until then. This episode was from 2019 and we were still feeling out what this show was about or the direction it was going. The sound was not the best and the show has matured in a huge way since that time.
