Tessa is joined by author and advocate Kimberly Blackburn. Kimberly shares her story of abuse, deceit, and trauma - how it all began and how she broke the cycle. After stifling her voice and story for years and years, the Universe said ‘it’s time’ by seating her on a plan next to a woman who worked for a major publishing company. Her story spilled out which led her on a new chapter of healing and helping others do the same. In her book, Dirty Love, Kimberly dives into the double life led by her (now ex) husband, $94 million in stolen money, the FBI investigation and how she finally broke free from an abusive relationship.
Tessa and Kimberly discuss:
- The loss of her mother at a young age and how she stifled her own grief
- How her abusive and toxic relationship began
- How a lavish lifestyle can factor into the cycle of abuse
- Mental health awareness
- Kimberly’s inspiration in telling her story
- How she protects her children and what she hopes they will take away from her past
- The best things you can do or say to help someone that you think is in an abusive relationship
- And more
