⚠️ Trigger Warning: This episode includes discussion of childhood abuse and trauma. Please listen with care.

In this powerful and deeply personal conversation, I sit down with JoJo Dries, founder of On The Wings of Angels, a nonprofit supporting survivors of abuse.

Her story is one of unimaginable pain—but also one of resilience, truth, and transformation. We talk openly about her experience with years of physical and mental abuse from her father, the complex emotional aftermath, and how she now helps others reclaim their voice and their worth.

I first met JoJo after her TEDx Detroit talk and was immediately struck by her raw courage and unwavering mission to help others. In this interview, she trusted me enough to go even deeper. This is not an easy listen—but it is an important one. Her honesty and advocacy are saving lives.

To anyone listening who has felt "crazy" or questioned their reality after trauma—JoJo’s message is clear: You’re not crazy. Yes, it did happen. And you deserve healing.
