FYI - I AM DAMAGED

FYI - I AM DAMAGED

By Oscar Luna

Thank you for joining me on this journey to explore the wonderfully damaged people that make the world turn.

This podcast is not about reliving, revisiting, or exploring the trauma of a person, but of the strength(s) that is born of these traumatic ripples that make us stronger in life as we briefly navigate through or reflect back on the pain that birthed it.

May you find the strength you need or it ignites the curiosity of how strong you are, how strong you can be, and know that the strength is there for the taking.

Time to get back to it, thank you for taking the ride again with me for season three.

Starting it at an uneven time in my life to say the least, but discipline teaches you to always get back up and with a steady motion, put one foot in front of the other, no matter what.

Why Was I Given This Pain? To Help Heal the World!, Maria Trusa 08-03-2023

Why Was I Given This Pain? To Help Heal the World!, Maria Trusa 08-03-2023

"I want to impact millions of people before I close my eyes for the last time" - Maria Trusa

I learned to never get in-between a determined woman and their altruistic goals; just help them move ever so close to the finish line and beyond.

Meeting Maria and being a part of her movement, Yo Digo No Mas (I Say No More), to end sexual abuse amongst children and give a voice to the adults that have suffered in their past due to their past trauma's that were swept, not under the rug, but in the corner in plain sight and never addressed like festering wound that may or may not heal in the future, has been one journey that I've never expected and will cherish the continued experience.

Donate to the movement and inform yourself on what you can do or just to be more aware for yourself, your children, and those around you that you may or may not know.

Our children are supposed to grow beyond our expectations, not to be seen as a heartless person's disposable plaything!
