In this gripping episode of 'The Only One in the Room,' Laura Cathcart Robbins interviews Cheryl Hunter, a bestselling author, speaker, and media personality who survived a harrowing kidnapping and torture ordeal at the age of 18. Cheryl recounts her traumatic experiences, including how false promises in France lured her, tortured over several days, and ultimately left for dead. Despite these horrifying events, she emerged more assertive, using her experiences to create transformative personal development programs and support other survivors of trauma. Cheryl shares her insights into resilience, the power of storytelling, and her mission to rewrite the narrative surrounding adversity. The episode delves deep into the emotional and psychological scars of such trauma. It offers a poignant look at Cheryl’s extraordinary journey of overcoming the odds to help others find healing and strength.
