Thirteen years later, the anniversary of my abuser’s death still hits hard, because grief doesn’t follow rules. In this episode of Healing Out Loud, I talk about complicated grief, messy feelings that resurface years later, and how to hold space for healing when closure never came.

Ever felt like letting someone in meant risking everything?
Like if they saw the real you, they'd walk away?
You're not alone. In this honest reflection, Jack explores the quiet ways CPTSD teaches us to hide, and how we can begin to unlearn the lie that we’re unlovable.
It's time to flip the switch from survival to self-worth.
Ever stared at your phone so long it felt like it was staring back? Yeah, me too.
Today’s episode is about that CPTSD-flavored panic spiral that can hit after sending, or not sending, a simple text. The overthinking. The shame. The imaginary arguments. All over a few words on a screen.
Let’s talk about what’s really going on when a message hits us like a tidal wave, and how to catch ourselves before we drown in it.

Hosted by Jack, this podcast gets real about the raw, tangled, and often uncomfortable process of healing from trauma, CPTSD, and life’s toughest challenges. No filters, no quick fixes, just honest conversations about sor...
