About this listen

In episode 6 of After the Quiet, I explore how shame takes hold in a coercive controlling relationship and slowly reshapes identity, self-worth, and voice. Through personal reflection, this episode examines sexual shame, silence as survival, protecting an abuser's image, and the belief that love must be earned by becoming smaller. A deeper look at emotional abuse, coercive control, internalized shame, and why staying quiet an feel safer than being seen.
