From Trauma to Triumph: A Journey of Healing and Empowerment at 50+

Host Sherrilynne Starkie welcomes Janelle Anderson, a successful speaker, author and confidence coach., to the 50 Women Over 50 podcast.

Before she was a successful speaker, author and confidence coach, Janelle had been brutally raped and found herself in Las Vegas being trafficked by the man she went on to marry. She carried a burden of shame for decades and it was only in midlife that she awakened to how her past was impacting her ability to find her life’s purpose.

Janelle says, “If I could talk to my 30-year-old self, I would tell her to find a safe place and share your story now. Don't wait till you're 50 something.”

In this show, Janelle shares with us how at 55 she embarked on an immersive healing process that allowed her to find new confidence and a new mission in life.
