About this listen

Growing up in extreme poverty means living in a constant state of impermanence. Everything in your life - homes, possessions, even relationships - feels temporary, disposable. I learned this lesson repeatedly as a child, packing up my meager belongings into a single box while watching my mother and her boyfriend prioritize their next drink over stability.
This episode takes you into the very beginnings of the chaos that would become my new normal. The devastating betrayals and Faustian bargains I had to make as a child still in single-digit years. These arrangements led to consequences my mother chose to flee from rather than face.
Listen to understand how poverty creates cycles that are nearly impossible to break without meaningful intervention and why children often remain silent about their suffering even when they desperately need rescue.
