Blooming After Grooming

Turns out we, Sarah and Diana, have a lot in common despite living in different states. One of the more unfortunate thing we have in common is the same abuser: A high school English/Creative Writing/Journalism teacher. Join us as we take some deep breaths and emotional tums and talk through life after being groomed and sexually abused by someone who was entrusted with our safety. Content warning: Sexual abuse, lots of cussing

  Episode #22

  Return of the Judy: A Chat Between B*tches

  Aug 17, 20261h 20mS2

  Today's episode is a truly beautiful depiction of healing and growth. Sometimes we wonder what does it actually mean to be on a healing journey? This episode right here. For Diana, Judy was a source of tension in her abusive relationship with "the teacher." For Sarah, Judy was a complete stranger asking her to explain her abuse in order to save Judy's friendship. For Judy, Diana and Sarah were strangers she wanted to support and then became two women who publicly called her out. What a gift is to come together after all that, and see each other more clearly and without the influence of one particular repulsive man. And it was only possible because Diana, Sarah, and Judy were all willing to come to the table. -- Information about mass shooting in MN OutFront MN bloomingafterpod.com

  Women Can (And Do) Abuse Kids with Donna Bulatowicz

  Aug 6, 20261h 18mS2

  We had the true honor of speaking with Dr. Donna Bulatowicz : An educator, researcher, and writer, among other things. She shares about her experience being groomed and sexually abused in elementary school by a female teacher, and some of what she has learned about how this group of survivors is way too often not even considered when it comes to abuse research, prevention, and response services. Also in today's episode, Sarah shares about her Sunday night show, The Vampire Lestat, and how much it is resonating with her as a survivor of abuse. These thoughts are precursors to her recent post which has received much praise and attention from both survivors and people working on the show! Oh em gee! -- Donna's TikTok (under construction): drdonna.sapphire Yellowstone Valley Woman article NCSESAME Crossing the Line hosted by Joelle Casteix episode w/ Donna Blooming After Grooming Season 2 Episode 12 w Joelle Casteix
