A sudden voice shattered the lively atmosphere in a busy women's clothing store, demanding money. My heart dropped as I faced a masked stranger with a gun. In an instant, my role as store manager shifted to protector. As we handed over cash and phones, the weight of responsibility for my customers' safety hit me hard. We were forced into a back room, unaware that this was just the beginning...
Healing from trauma is a difficult journey, but it reveals an unexpected strength. Join me as I share the relief of police intervention, the struggle to find normalcy, and the intense challenge of facing the assailant in court. The unwavering support of loved ones and therapy proved crucial to my recovery, and this story is a tribute to resilience.
This podcast is dedicated to trauma survivors and to first responders who bravely serve to protect us. Thank you for your courage.
