Dissociated — Breaking Silence. Building Joy.
There was a time when silence was survival. But silence doesn’t last forever.
Host Sheryl Brown survived fifteen years of childhood sexual abuse by her adoptive father. Decades later, when her niece came forward about the same man, Sheryl finally found her voice.
In this deeply personal and hopeful podcast, she shares her journey from trauma to truth — and the light she discovered through the cracks.
Each episode blends intimate storytelling with conversations from survivors, therapists, and authors, exploring what it means to heal, to reclaim your power, and to build joy after pain.
Because the cracks in our stories aren’t where we break.
They’re where the light gets in.

Why didn’t you leave?
Why didn’t you tell someone?
Why did you keep the peace?
These are the questions survivors hear every day.
But they assume something that isn’t true — that leaving is simple, and that telling the truth doesn’t come at a cost.
In this episode, I’m unpacking t…
