O TYM ODCINKU
We welcome Heidi Ann to our podcast to discuss a tough topic- that of sibling abuse (physical & emotional). As I read her book, My Sister's Secret Keeper my heart broke on hearing her story and family dynamics. Yet in the unthinkable, in the hard- she shares how her faith carried her through. The word resiliency came bubbling up over and over again with each page I turned. The human spirit of rising above unthinkable circumstances is certainly captured and celebrated in the book and in our podcast. It's in the hard, where we get to meet faith, courage, bravery and resiliency. I'm honored that Heidi Ann was willing to share her personal story with Feather & Foundation and that it be used not only to educate about sibling abuse- which is not talked about, but also to remind us of our resiliency when faced with unimaginable things in our life.
