Kill The Silence: Episode 3

Surviving the Fallout of Therapist Abuse, Career Loss, and Finding Clarity Anyway
7

I wasn’t planning to talk about all of this today.

But like most of what I’ve built — this episode is unscripted, uncomfortable, and real.

I talk about why I didn’t record yesterday.
I talk about losing my entire career.
I talk about what it felt like to have a therapist blackmail me, threaten me, and destroy my trust while I was already in the middle of the worst professional collapse of my life.

And I talk about what it means to try and build something again… when you don’t even know if you’re okay.


What’s inside this episode:

  • How being the top performer in my role didn’t protect me from being targeted

  • The aftermath of being fired, silenced, and psychologically manipulated by a therapist I trusted for five years

  • Why traditional “shame regulation” and therapy tools never worked for me

  • PTSD symptoms I still deal with daily — night terrors, rage spirals, dissociation

  • How one friend saved my life just by showing up when no one else did

  • Why most people have no idea what to say when you’re spiraling — and what actually helps


This episode is messy, honest, and probably uncomfortable to listen to.
But it’s not for everyone.
It’s for the people who’ve been there — or who are there right now.

If that’s you, press play.
