This is my first official episode sharing a part of my story, completely unfiltered.
The Brie Pod was created to be a space for others to be a part of a community, where they can be themselves without judgment. After having others share their stories, I found the courage to finally share a piece of mine.
Many of you have seen my travel posts and my social media presence and may think that I have lived a charmed life. I do have a good life, but it has had its challenges. Some of those challenges have been mountains:
- I am a survivor of intimate partner abuse
- I have a chronic health condition that renders me bedridden, sometimes for days at a time.
With all of this, I have learned along the way to cope with these things and honestly am still learning coping mechanisms. I share this with full vulnerability and hope it can help others.
