This episode is a testament to the human spirit. Today’s guest talks about overcoming darkness, rejection, and multiple traumatic events. Kauri bravely shares her experiences with racism, sexual abuse, incarceration of a loved one, and even death. At times, she felt very alone as she struggled to make sense of her world with little or no support. Sometimes not being believed by those around her. Sometimes the trauma being caused by those who professed to support her.
Kauri’s story is dark, gut-wrenching, hopeful, beautiful, and inspiring. Her ability to heal herself, find her footing, and become an advocate for others, gives us a brief insight into the beautiful, caring, loving person she is and I am so grateful to her for allowing me to share her journey on Strangers You Know.
