Hello folks and welcome back to Living Vicariously. Today’s episode is the first part of the Trauma that Binds series. Here we give a voice to those wishing to speak out against all forms of trauma and advocate for those in similar situations. I will warn that this series will contain mature subject matter and maybe triggering for some individuals. Listener discretion is advised. Featured in this episode is trauma survivor and mental health activist: Emily Montgomery. In this episode, Emily shares some of the struggles she faced with addiction, domestic violence, and sadly human trafficking. “It would’ve turned into trafficking if my dealer wouldn’t have said no” -Emily. Also shared are some of the support systems and resources that helped her escape the situation she was in and lead to her path in recovery.
“To let people know that they are not alone. To show support for the survivors of these issues, and to stand up for the injustice the flawed system has.”
“To support not only the women and children going through this but also the men.”
– Emily Montgomery
