Listen "Being Mean"
Episode Synopsis
In the confusing landscape of childhood sexual abuse, it is often easier to block the experience than continue to try to make sense of what is happening. Patricia Eagle did not uncover the memories of her fathers abuse until well into her adulthood, although it affected her ability to take care of herself and make the choices that were best for her. Her mother further contributed to her confusion by calling sexual touching being mean and failing to intervene between Patricia and her father. Thinking that all the confusion she felt would end when she left home, Patricia got out as fast as she could, but slowly realized that there was more she needed to do. Plumbing the depths of her own painful experiences, Patricia found on the other end a life more filled with joy, a loss she could feel fully and a world that was more friendly. Join us to talk about how she uncovered and healed from the unimaginable.
