I'm a Survivor: Escaping Domestic Violence & Reclaiming My Life

There are some stories you tell because you're ready. And there are some stories you tell because somebody listening might need to hear how you made it out. This is one of those stories. In one of the most personal episodes of 50ish & Fab, KC Sonshine opens a chapter of her life she survived—but could have very easily not lived to tell. Domestic violence didn't begin with the worst night. It began with things she saw. Things she ignored. Things she was warned about. And promises she desperately wanted to believe. So why did she stay? What finally made her leave? And how do you reclaim yourself after spending years becoming someone you barely recognize? KC goes there. With the honesty, humor, faith and unfiltered truth 50ish & Fab listeners have come to expect, she shares what she understands now that she couldn't see then—and the lesson about abusive relationships that has changed the way she chooses who gets access to her life today. This isn't an episode about being a victim. It's about the moment surviving becomes choosing yourself. If you've ever wondered why someone stays, loved someone you couldn't convince to leave, ignored a red flag yourself—or had to find your way back to the person you used to be—press play. Because sometimes getting out is only the beginning. The real story is what happens when you finally decide to live. #DomesticViolence #DomesticViolenceAwareness #DomesticViolenceSurvivor #Survivor #SurvivorStory #AbuseSurvivor #EmotionalAbuse #BreakingTheCycle #HealingAfterAbuse #HealingJourney #ReclaimYourLife #ToxicRelationships #WomenOver50 #LifeAfter50 #FaithAndHealing #WomenEmpowerment #50ishAndFab #KCSonshine
