This episode is to honor victims of sexual assault and survivors of emotional and psychological abuse. My story can be triggering so listener discretion is advised.
In this episode, I tell you the origin story of my pen name persona, Sincerely Miss Mary. She was created during a season of depression and in the midst of the gaslighting and victim-blaming, I endured after confronting my partner about his predatory friend.
My pen name persona pulled me out of denial and gave me the strength to stand up for myself. Victim blaming and victim-shaming are insidious acts from those who are incapable of working on themselves.
If you have experienced this please know you had every right to speak up and tell your story. I stand with you.
