Survivor and Inspirer Catherine Davi | Ep 368
A brave voice cuts through the noise. Catherine joins us to share how grooming crept into her life through secrecy, staged maturity, and online manipulation—and how she fought to be believed, gathered evidence, and began to heal. With David helping facilitate, we unpack the exact tactics abusers use: isolating kids from parents, normalizing sexualized content, coaching concealment, and exploiting social media DMs to keep everything hidden in plain sight.
We also get honest about the aftermath. Catherine describes freeze responses during interviews, fragmented memories, and the physical toll of trauma. We explore why that’s normal from a neurobiology lens and how somatic therapy, compassionate psychology, and steady community support can reconnect mind and body. Her journey includes faith as a source of mercy rather than shame, and a reminder that healing is possible without rushing or minimizing what happened.
This conversation is a practical guide, not just a testimony. We outline clear safety steps for families: no filming minors without parent consent, no private adult–child messaging, parent-monitored accounts, and scripts kids can use to reject boundary testing. We detail how to preserve digital evidence, what trauma‑informed interviewing should look like, and why “pressure” is not consent. If you’re a survivor, a parent, an educator, or an advocate, you’ll leave with tools to recognize grooming, language to support disclosure, and hope that truth can still win.
If this moved you, subscribe, share it with someone who needs it, and leave a review to help more people find the show. Your voice might be the reason another survivor is heard.
