Episode 1: The Ugly Backlash

Turns out announcing a podcast is enough to make dysfunctional family group chats burst into flames.

Before we even shared our stories, the backlash started. Threats. Smear campaigns. Cease and desists. Family members crashing out. Even a teenager getting dragged into adult drama. Apparently silence was the only family rule we were expected to follow.

In this episode, Bre and I talk about what happens when the "ugly sister" finally decides she's done protecting everyone else's image at the expense of her own healing. We dive into childhood trauma, narcissistic family dynamics, reactive survival, learning how to exist in healthy relationships after abuse, and why speaking the truth somehow makes you the villain.

If your family ever called you "too much," "too sensitive," "crazy," or made you the scapegoat for simply telling the truth... welcome home.

Grab your cawfeee, your emotional support vape, or a strong cocktail. This is The Ugly Backlash... and we're just getting started.
