She emerged from the depths of trauma with a story that redefines bravery and resilience. Our guest, a Navy veteran known under the pen name Honey Badger, shares her riveting journey of confronting post-traumatic stress, navigating the turbulence of victim blaming, and her unfortunate discharge—all after a devastating personal violation during her service. But her narrative doesn't end in despair; instead, it arcs toward advocacy and healing. Honey Badger's candid conversation with us is a testament to the power of self-expression and finding one's voice through the arts, encouraging listeners and fellow veterans to embrace their own paths to recovery.
In an episode that interweaves sorrow with strength, Honey Badger doesn't just recount her past but illuminates the holistic practices that became her lifeline. From the Nia Technique to sound healing, she describes her transformative experiences with movement and music that helped her process grief, particularly after the loss of her mother to metastatic breast cancer. Her insight into the therapeutic nature of poetry and dance serves both as a personal revelation and an invitation to others seeking solace and community. Join us for a conversation that not only shares a journey back to oneself but also offers a beacon of hope and practical tools for those navigating the aftermath of their own battles.
