New Show #318- Marilu From Kidnapped & Abused to Advocate

Interview was done May 31, 2023

I love meeting new people willing to share their “lemon to lemonade” experience!

This story is about Marilu and it's her first time to publicly tell about when she was kidnapped, tortured, and beat up to the point of death. "The Monster", a man she knew, held her captive for three hours. She was able to escape and has taken years to work through her trauma. She can't believe she is alive. Now she is trying to fill the hole he has left by being a victims advocate to empower other abused women to speak out. She is blessed to be surrounded by good friends and family who sustain her. What message do you get from this interview?

ABOUT the LemonAid Stand: Heidi started hosting the LemonAid Stand live radio talk show, over 20 years ago, in 1999! It all came about when Heidi was dealing with thoughts of suicide, inadequacy, and dealing with infertility. She realized as she reached out to others and heard their stories, she would be uplifted and inspired no matter what she was going through. So this podcast has old "Original" shows from that time period. It also has "New" shows that are currently being recorded with new guests. And it has "Update" shows where Heidi reached out to original radio show guests to find out how the past 20 years have been! Theme song written and recorded by Heidi’s baby brother Shane!

Heidi is a motivational speaker and would love to speak at your event about how to elevate your happiness!
