Some pain doesn’t leave bruises you can see.

This episode is for those who grew up afraid in their own homes.

The ones who were silenced, shamed, or blamed.

The ones who had to heal in secret.

I speak on toxic family dynamics, emotional and physical abuse, and the deep trauma we carry — especially in Somali households where culture and silence often come before compassion.

This is the hurt that’s hard to name… but I’m naming it anyway.

If this one hits close to home — know you’re not alone.

And you’re not broken.
