Symone founded Eye on DV, and is creating a sanctuary for those battered by abuse, proving that even in the clutches of darkness, faith can be the beacon leading to empowerment and renewal. Be sure to hear Part 1. Symone is an actress with a deep-rooted connection to God, who guides her and enables her every step of her life. With Him, she faced and conquered fears, leading to a portrayal so powerful it could only be described as heavenly. It's a testament to the idea that when we tap into our spirituality, we can create art that doesn't just entertain, but also heals and inspires. She also discusses parenting, not passing down generational trauma, and how she empowers the unique spark within him as an empath, in a world that often demands conformity. Our discussion carves out the importance of fostering emotional intelligence and spiritual awareness in our children. She shares several dreams, including her "God is awesome parties!"

Simone Fairchild, a survivor turned advocate and force for good, shares how she has transformed her pain into purpose, with me, Karen Hall, the host of The Hero Within Podcast. In part 1 of 2, she describes her extraordinary story of overcoming domestic abuse and empowering others to reclaim their life. Symone's candor about her past abuse and her path to healing, intertwined with spiritual awakening is an inspiration. We dive into the creation of Eye On DV, Symone's nonprofit dedicated to eradicating domestic violence, and how her personal triumphs showcase her divine resilience and empathy, gifts from God. In this heartfelt exchange, we discuss the power of forgiveness and love in the difficult but rewarding process of forgiving an abuser. In forgiving, we liberate ourselves. Our discussion opens a window to the notion that hate can poison from within and that understanding an abuser's inability to love can pave the way for forgiveness , albeit from a safe distance.

Send us a text Imagine being on the brink of an ordinary business trip, only for it to spiral into a tale of survival against all odds. This episode brings to light the arresting narrative of Jose Angel Pereira Ruimwyk, a Citgo oil and gas executive in the US, whose life was changed forever when he was falsely imprisoned in Venezuela on espionage charges. Jose describes the eerie forewarning that presaged his ordeal, and the subsequent struggle for sustenance within the walls of a Caracas prison. His poignant recount of isolation, health battles, and the flicker of hope reignited by a precious phone call with his wife is nothing short of a testament to human resilience. As we dissect Jose's journey through the darkest days, we expose the life rafts that kept him afloat: the clasp of hope, the power of a positive mindset, his faith, the Bible, his family and fellow prisoners, and the crucial role of spirituality. He shares the strategies that shepherded him through the tempest—focus, calm, and a resolute spirit nourished by prayer, exercise, and the truths in the Bible. With inspiration from the apostle Paul, Jose also becomes a beacon in adversity, reminding us that solidarity, community support, and faith can illuminate the path to resilience and reclaiming one's life from the jaws of despair.
