In this conversation, Naomi discusses various topics like all of the most unique and satisfying places to eat in St. Louis, dabbling in stand up comedy, her innate desire to be empathetic toward others, and the resiliency of surviving multiple forms of abuse throughout her life. Naomi provides significant insight into the mind of a person who experienced neglect and abuse as a child, as well as someone who experienced sexual abuse and intimate partner violence as an adult. Naomi is brave in sharing her story and for speaking so candidly. If these topics are triggering for anyone with similar experiences, I understand if you choose not to listen; however, hearing Naomi speak about these topics may provide comfort as experiencing these kinds of traumatic events can often be isolating.
