I am Enough Episode 5- Hoarding and Neglect

In this long awaited episode, our hosts talk about grieving a life they could never have due to having an abusive mother, and how they cope with it now. They also discuss what methods they use to help live that childhood they could never have, and how it has both positively and negatively impacted them. 

In this episode, our hosts recount what it was like to grow up with parents that hoarded materials, along with those who neglected them. Join us on this journey as we talk about the struggles of growing up in such an environment, how we dealt with the triggers that came from it, and our advice for others that are struggling with this as well.  Facebook Page>>> https://www.facebook.com/Iamenoughthepodcast

In this episode, we talk about a subject that is very close to one our cohosts heart. Skye opens up about her life as a trans woman, how difficult it was for her to come out in a conservative household, and how she dealt with a NM in her transition. Come along with us as we delve into transphobia, the struggles of being trans, and how you can help those in your life that may be transitioning.  https://translifeline.org/ Music credit: Days of Hope - Hampus Naeselius                           Do Not Let Me Go (Instrumental Version) - Gamma Skies

Our third episode of I Am Enough will cover the topic of going low/no contact with abusive parents, relatives, friends, etc. Our hosts take a deep dive into the reasons leading to this decision and how it has lifted a huge weight off their shoulders. Nobody wants to go no contact, but in an effort to preserve your own mental health and well-being this decision can be necessary. Flying Monkeys may try to guilt you for making this decision, and the hosts discuss how to cope with those who say, "forgive and forget."

In this weeks episode, our hosts talk about gaslighting, and how it's effected them throughout their lives. They also discuss ways they've coped with it, how they've overcome it, and what tools they offer our listeners to cope with their own examples of gaslighting. 

In the first episode of this series, the hosts talk about boundaries. What are they, and how did they affect us as children? Did our mothers respect them or not?  Come along as we go on a journey of self discovery, healing,  and believing that we are enough.
