Are you tired of setting the same boundaries over and over again with that one family member? Or do you have a friend that keeps overstepping even when you have told them that it's inappropriate? Isn't it hard to believe that someone would continue to be disrespectful? Especially since you've laid clear boundaries down?  Or have you? Our episode today may be a bit of a harder pill to swallow. We will be talking about what it means to set boundaries and the common mistakes we make when trying to set them.

TRIGGER WARNING ON ALL EPISODES

About two months ago I posted a 15 second video on Instagram explaining some of the things I had to do as a fake missionaries kid. I never thought anyone would be able to relate. I had never really publicly talked about it because I felt cases like mine were so few and far between. 2.4 million views and hundreds of comments/DMs later, I am 100% convinced there are more people out there that have lived lives just like mine.
To anyone who has asked that question after watching the video, I have made this podcast to answer your question.

My hope is that you feel seen after hearing this episode if you’ve been through what I’ve been through. And I hope if you are in any type of ministry you are able to be more aware of what to look for when sponsoring missionaries.

TRIGGER WARNING ON ALL EPISODES  

Today's episode is about sexual abuse. After I was abused as a child, I carried the shame for YEARS. I constantly told myself it was my fault. It wasn't until I went to therapy that I realized the truth.

TRIGGER WARNING ON ALL EPISODES  Welcome to The Unfortunate Sandwich podcast. We are going to be diving into what life looks like after experiencing religious trauma and working through mental health struggles. In this episode we will talk about my current relationship with God after leaving religious abuse. EDIT: I realized I never explained when I said we, “Got married a month after I started working there” where there was. This was in 2012 when I started working as a flight attendant.

Did you know that you may have an addiction you didn't know about? Have you ever wondered why you find yourself gravitating to stressful situations that you KNOW are not healthy? 

Growing up in my home, abuse and stressful situations were a daily norm. I was also taught at a young age that, "Idle hands were the devil's workshop." Combining the two, it wasn't until years after I had left home that I realized I was addicted to my own stress hormone, cortisol.

I have yet to see someone who wears a t-shirt that says, "I am in therapy for anger management." It's not something most of us want to talk about. It's uncomfortable and unfortunately there is often a stigma that comes with getting help for our mental health struggles. In today's episode, I am hoping to break some of the myths behind getting help for anger. As someone who has personally gotten help for anger management, I hope you are able to feel encouraged to know that you are not alone in your struggles.

In today's episode, I wanted to share with you what therapy and starting therapy has looked like for me. Having grown up in an environment where mental health was not talked about, I had no idea where to start to get help. I hope in this episode you are encouraged, know that help is available, and  that it's ok to look for it.
