I had a powerful conversation with Aleesha Barlow, founder of Tell Somebody, where she bravely shared parts of her story of abuse — not for shock, but for healing.
This episode is tender, raw, and deeply human.
If you or someone you love is navigating their own recovery, this conversation may offer validation and hope.

Episode 8: Tell Somebody: From Silence to Strength — A Conversation with Aleesha Barlow Tell Somebody

This week on Unhealed: Surviving Isn’t Healing, I sit down with Aleesha Barlow, founder of the Tell Somebody Movement. Aleesha’s story is one of courage, faith, and transformation—how one act of speaking out became a national call to break the silence around child abuse.

💬 We talk about the power of telling your truth, what healing really looks like, and how we can all help create safe spaces for survivors.

If you’ve ever wondered whether your voice could make a difference, this episode will remind you—it can.

This piece is personal. It is written from my lived experience, not theory, not research summaries, and not secondhand stories. I am sharing what happened in my body and what it taught me about medical dismissal, authority, and self trust.

This is not an attack on individual doctors. It is a reckoning with a system that too often fails to listen, especially to women after surgery and menopause. If you are reading this and recognize yourself in it, you are not imagining things and you are not alone.

I ask that this space remain respectful. Disagreement is welcome. Dismissal is not. This is a conversation about listening, believing, and reclaiming authority over our own bodies.

Thank you for reading with care.

My account of surgical menopause, medical dismissal, and why trusting your own body may be the most critical act of survival.

This is not a comfortable piece.
It is written in love for Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., not nostalgia. In truth, not performance. Racism is no longer coded. It is loud. And pretending otherwise is part of how it survives. I wrote this while thinking about my grandchildren and what it means to tell them the truth in a country that celebrates Dr. King one day a year while resisting everything he stood for the rest of the time.

Read slowly. Sit with what stings.
Discomfort is not harm. It is information. This is about honesty, courage, and the kind of love that refuses to lie.

I Love Dr. King Enough to Tell the Truth

This podcast episode is not a tribute and it is not a history lesson.

It is a direct examination of this country as it exists right now and what it means to invoke Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. while openly rejecting the values he lived and died for.

Racism is not subtle. It is loud, defended, and rewarded. And every year we pause to celebrate Dr. King without reckoning with how far we have drifted from the moral clarity he demanded.

I recorded this episode thinking about what I am supposed to teach my grandchildren about truth, courage, and integrity in a world that performs justice instead of living it.

This is not meant to comfort. It is meant to confront.

If you are willing to listen honestly, this episode is for you.
