From Silence to Strength: Maddy Molle's Journey of Healing, Truth, and Purpose

In this deeply moving episode, I reconnect with Maddy Molle, a former student of mine whose journey through trauma and healing offers a profound message of resilience. Maddy shares her story of navigating immense challenges as a teenager when her younger brother, Carson, survived a suicide attempt. She opens up about the emotional weight of secrecy, the burden of stepping into an adult role at 15, and the journey of reclaiming her voice and healing from hidden anger and grief.

Now 23, Maddy is aspiring to become a Child Life Specialist, using her experience to support families facing medical trauma. She reflects on how speaking her truth and seeking therapy helped her heal and transform her pain into a purpose-driven career. This episode is a powerful reminder that your story matters, and healing is possible when we acknowledge our truth.
