This is the beginning of a powerful 3-part series with a woman whose life could be a movie … my mum, Wendy Wilson.
In this first conversation, we start to unravel the raw, beautiful, and heartbreaking journey she’s walked. From teenage pregnancy, adoption, and family trauma to a deepening spiritual connection with nature and multidimensionality. This is a story of survival, truth-telling, and deep healing.
You’ll hear the sounds of my little boy Harper playing with his cars in the background — a sweet reminder that these conversations are real, imperfect, and layered with generations of life, love, and learning. This is real life.
We talk into
-
What it was like to fall pregnant as a teenager and be hidden from the world
-
The pain of adoption and the long road to reunion
-
The effects of childhood trauma and a lack of mental health support
-
Natural connection to animals, nature, and energy
-
How trauma shapes us — and how healing helps us support others
This episode is about being seen, being heard, and honouring the truth - even when it shakes. May it bring healing, insight, and deeper compassion to those who listen, especially our own family.
