Have you ever wondered how someone can transform the deepest pain into their greatest strength? Simone Fairchild, a survivor turned advocate and force for good, shares how she has transformed her pain into purpose, with me, Karen Hall, the host of The Hero Within Podcast.
In part 1 of 2, she describes her extraordinary story of overcoming domestic abuse and empowering others to reclaim their life. Symone's candor about her past abuse and her path to healing, intertwined with spiritual awakening is an inspiration.
We dive into the creation of Eye On DV, Symone's nonprofit dedicated to eradicating domestic violence, and how her personal triumphs showcase her divine resilience and empathy, gifts from God.
In this heartfelt exchange, we discuss the power of forgiveness and love in the difficult but rewarding process of forgiving an abuser. In forgiving, we liberate ourselves. Our discussion opens a window to the notion that hate can poison from within and that understanding an abuser's inability to love can pave the way for forgiveness , albeit from a safe distance. Thank you for listening, for your engagement and for your support to share our healing messages!

I'm wishing you lots of love on your own hero's journey,
Karen

Symone Fairchild, from the Washington D.C. area, was raised in the martial arts, and has an entrepreneurial spirit coursing through her veins which affords her a “pick yourself up by the bootstraps” type of tenacity. She is a warrior of God, a single mom, an actress, screenwriter, producer, director and activist. It is from her creative platform and thriving post-domestic abuse that God has meant her to help and love others. She has braved the storms of healing and reinventing, emotional rollercoasters, and building a foundation for life for she and her son from absolutely nothing. Now that her mission is clear, she will never stop fighting for others through her organization, EyeOnDV, THE movement to eradicate domestic violence, and she will never stop fighting for her son.

Boysober
Have you ever wondered what life might be like if you stopped worrying about being wanted, and focused on understanding what you actually want? That was the question Hope Woodard asked herself after a string of situationships inspired her to take a break from sex and dating. She went "boysober," a personal concept that sparked a global movement among women looking to prioritize themselves over men. Now, Hope is looking to expand the ways we explore our relationship to relationships. Taking a bold, unfiltered look into modern love, romance, and self-discovery, Boysober will dive into messy stories about dating, sex, love, friendship, and breaking generational patterns—all with humor, vulnerability, and a fresh perspective.
