I sit down with Amee, a courageous advocate who has spent decades living in the shadows of epilepsy. For years, she battled feelings of shame and isolation, hiding her condition from friends and family. Now, Amee is on a mission to shed light on her journey and dismantle the stigmas surrounding epilepsy.
She shares her personal story of struggle and resilience, the challenges she faced in seeking acceptance, and the pivotal moments that inspired her to embrace her truth.

064 Groomed at 11 by My Best Friend's Dad
In this episode, Kobias shares about the years spent homeless, friendless and vulnerable. At just 11 years old, Kobias made a friend. Unbeknownst to them, this friendship would turn their lives upside down. Kobias was pulled into the dark world of grooming by the father of their best friend. What began as a seemingly innocent friendship soon turned into years of manipulation, betrayal and physical and sexual abuse. By 15, they were in a full-blown relationship with their friend's father, which ended on the verge of death.
Kobias opens up about the early signs of grooming, the emotional toll of being targeted by someone they trusted, and the strength it took to understand and confront what had happened. Their story sheds light on the insidious tactics of grooming and the lasting journey of healing.
**Trigger Warning: This episode includes discussions of grooming and abuse.**
