My Interview On The Never Give Up Show with Host Bailey Smith- Meet Bailey And Listen To Our Important Conversation

I had the great pleasure of sharing my story on The Never Give Up Show. Bailey and I dug deep and discussed the strong topics of child abuse, mental health, domestic violence and suicide. We also discussed hope, healing and how to move forward in life after abuse. Powerful discussion!

I met Bailey a few years back via Nassca & Linkedln. Bailey was just starting out on her healing journey and was seeking support and direction. We all embraced Bailey and encouraged her to push forward. It has be exciting to watch her journey. I am honored to walk with her. As abuse survivors we must continue to support one another and bask in the light together.

Please read on, and meet Bailey. Visit her website listed below and also listen to our interview also listed below. We all have a story!

God Bless & Embrace the Journey

has been recognized and honored. I am humbled and grateful always.

Meet Bailey Smith — This is her story and why she has stood up to advocate for awareness and change!

After more than two hellish decades married to a narcissist who physically, mentally and verbally abused me and our three boys, I have found purpose in all I’ve been through. Domestic violence and narcissistic abuse are far too common and many don’t understand what is happening to them and their family. 

I am standing up and speaking out in order to bring an end to these nightmares, through my show, Never Give UP!!! and a book that I am currently writing which will be a comprehensive guide to recognizing and escaping narcissistic abuse. My book is due out in early 2022.
