They’ve called me hysterical. They’ve accused me of having a “scorched earth policy.” And most recently, they tried to brand me with “scorched earth hysterics.” But what the world labels as hysteria is often survival.
In this episode, I reclaim the words that were meant to silence me. From the lawsuit that nearly broke me, to the red-flag radar that comes with living with CPTSD, to the online harassment that keeps resurfacing, I’m pulling it all into the light. Because being loud and assertive doesn’t make me dangerous. It makes me someone who isn’t afraid to use her voice when one is needed.
Together, we’ll dig into how trauma responses are mislabeled, how dismissal costs survivors their safety, and how what others call hysteria can actually be one of our greatest strengths.
This is not destruction, it’s survival. This is Scorched Earth Hysterics.
