In this powerful episode, we explore the heart-wrenching story of a woman who endured years of emotional and physical abuse from the very person meant to nurture and protect her—her mother. Drawing parallels to the story of the "Bummer Lamb," a lamb rejected by its mother yet later nurtured back to health, this episode highlights her journey of survival, healing, and reclaiming her sense of worth. Through raw honesty, she shares how the trauma shaped her life, the deep scars it left, and how she ultimately found the strength to break free from the cycle of pain and find love within herself. This is a story of resilience, redemption, and the power of self-forgiveness.
