In this deeply moving conversation, I’m joined by Amanda Durocher, host of the New View Advice podcast. Amanda shares her journey of surviving sexual violence, uncovering repressed memories, and navigating the terror of speaking her truth out loud for the first time. We explore how her healing journey has been shaped by self-compassion, learning to trust herself again, and finding freedom from the weight of trauma. Amanda’s courage in sharing her raw experiences — from the moment she realized she could no longer keep memories buried, to her reflections on anger, body-based healing, and community — offers powerful validation and hope for survivors everywhere.
