Healing Sexual Abuse (feat. Jaymee's Mother Victoria)

In one of the most intimate conversations ever shared on Love Is The Author, Jaymee sits down his mother Victoria Roberts for a conversation about how she survived a decade of horrific sexual abuse by her father, the silence and self-blame she carried, and the spiritual life raft that preserved something in her no one could touch. She recounts confronting her abuser, reclaiming her innocence, and discovering a forgiveness that neither excuses the unforgivable nor requires reconciliation. Mother and son read the letters that helped reroute the pain of their family history: hers to the father who violated her trust, and the prophetic letter she later sent Jaymee when addiction had brought him to his knees—a letter that did not shame him into changing, but loved him into remembering who he was. This is not a story about remaining a victim. It is a story about firm-footed honesty, sacred boundaries, and the rebel spirit that can emerge from the wreckage still capable of making peace. **Content note: This episode contains candid discussion of childhood sexual abuse and addiction.** **SPONSORED BY:** ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.yerbamadre.com⁠ **Interested in Spiritual Mentorship with Jaymee?** email: lacee@loveistheauthor.com to set up a free consultation, or visit: www.loveistheauthor.com/mentorship  **LITA PODCAST:** hosted, produced, and recorded by Jaymee Carpenter.  **SOUND MIX:** Chris Faller **OPENING SONG: Tripura Sundari** by Earthtones Music & Sheela Bringi **CLOSING SONG**: *Ocean Of Beauty* by Earthtones Music & Sheela Bringi **Interested in Spiritual Mentorship with Jaymee?** email: lacee@loveistheauthor.com to set up a free consultation, or visit: www.loveistheauthor.com/mentorship  **THiS SHOW is a LABOR of LOVE.
