Navigating the path of healing after sexual abuse, many struggle with the label that defines their experience: are we "survivors" or "victims"? This episode grapples with the weight these words carry, as I, Michelle Hall, Christian Life Coach and host of Broken to Blessed, open up about my personal journey and the reasons behind my choice to embrace the term "survivor." Through this exploration, we uncover the profound impact language has on our recovery narrative and consider the perspectives of others who share this painful chapter in their lives.

We also shine a light on the upcoming Survivors Ball, a space of honor and celebration for the bravery and enduring spirit of women who have risen above their circumstances. As we dissect the implications of the words we use to describe ourselves, we're not just engaging in a theoretical debate—we're actively participating in the shaping of our identities and the reclaiming of power over our stories. Tune in for an honest discussion on this nuanced aspect of the healing process, and discover how these labels reflect our ongoing challenges and triumphs.
