50. Thrive Like a Mother with Ebony Fleming

On this week's episode, Ebony Fleming shares about her experience with sexual assault and her journey of healing.   She speaks about the obstacles she had to overcome just to admit that she needed to ask for help.  Some obstacles we discuss are:

• Escaping the environment
• Admitting the truth to those you love
• Seeking help from law enforcement
• Needing to be strong in a black community
• Overcoming the stigma of therapy

The overall goal of this episode is to help other women know that they are not alone, and that asking for help is the first step in healing.   If you need additional support, or know someone who does, you can call your local emergency number (911 in the US) or contact the National Sexual Assault Hotline at 1-800-656-4673.
