#237 Real People Real Voices With Vanessa
Sat Jan 24 2026
Brenda J. and Karen W. are excited to present another episode of Real People, Real Voices, a series of mini podcasts focused on healing.
In this series, we interview abuse survivors who are ready and willing to share their stories in hopes of bringing healing to themselves and to our listeners.
In this episode, we sit down with Vanessa. Vanessa is a survivor of domestic violence, emotional abuse, and financial abuse—experiences that ultimately led to divorce. She also endured deep relational trauma after discovering her former husband had multiple children with other women.
Without giving too much of her story away, Vanessa has been out of her abusive relationship for 20 years, and her ex-husband is in prison.
Vanessa is an incredible survivor whose story brings hope and healing. We are truly honored and grateful that she chose to share her journey with us.
