Ep 1 – The Night Everything Changed Everything

🎙️ What happens when a therapist devoted to healing others becomes the victim—and the system refuses to see the truth?This is Three Times A Victim: Living Under the Shadow of Toxic Shame — a memoir podcast of violence, betrayal, and survival.I spent my life becoming a therapist—treating everything from shyness to schizophrenia, and listening to trauma survivors speak truths no one else would hear. They were rape survivors. Abuse survivors. Alone in the room with me, they told their stories. I helped them feel safe. I told them, “my voice will go with you.”But one lie… ended everything.💥 Episode One: The Moment Everything ChangedImagine surviving a brutal home invasion… and instead of protection from the police, being interrogated and arrested as the perpetrator.The betrayal didn’t stop with law enforcement.It came from the justice system—a public defender who knew I was innocent, yet threatened me into a rushed plea.And it came from family. Not with accusations—but with silence.Even Darth Vader—the symbol of evil—died to save his son.My own parents, who never faced arrest or shame, couldn’t lift a finger when I cried out for help.What do we make of love that vanishes when we’re bleeding and broken?Across this podcast series, you’ll hear the raw, unflinching truth of how systemic failure, wrongful accusations, and toxic shame shattered a life once devoted to helping others heal.Each episode is a chapter in my fight to reclaim a stolen life—and to speak the truth no one wanted to hear.👉 Please start with Episode 1. This story unfolds chronologically and is meant to be experienced in order.📖 Read the full memoir:https://brucewhealton.com/victimOr get it on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0F4NJHXCB📌 More about the podcast:https://linktr.ee/brucewhealton#ToxicShame #JusticeFailed #FalseAccusations #PoliceInjustice #NarrativeTherapy #CPTSDRecovery #VictimToSurvivor #TraumaSurvivor #MemoirPodcast
