Trigger warning: This episode mentions domestic violence. Listener discretion advised.
We’re shaking things up this season!🎙️
I’m finally bringing back guest interviews + couldn’t think of a better way to kick things off than with this powerful conversation. Today, I’m sitting down with Janine Hernandez—a survivor, author & advocate—to unpack the reality of spiritual abuse.
This is a topic that doesn’t get nearly enough attention, but it’s something so many people have experienced, often without realizing it.
Janine opens up about how religion was weaponized against her in an abusive relationship, the challenges she faced in breaking free, and how she reclaimed her power through storytelling and healing.
If you’ve ever felt trapped in a situation where faith was used as a form of control, this episode is for you.
We’re talking about:
- How spiritual abuse plays a role in DV
- The red flags to look out for in toxic relationships
- The impact of trauma on our healing and decision-making
- Why storytelling is a powerful tool for reclaiming your voice
This conversation is raw, real, and so necessary. Hit play and let’s get into it!
