#110 | Veronica Monet: From Sexual Abuse to Empowered Sex Worker - How IFS Therapy Changed Everything
Imagine growing up in a trailer, part of a right-wing religious cult, experiencing ongoing sexual abuse from age 6 to 17. This was Veronica's reality. But her story doesn't end there. After escaping her abusive home, Veronica embarked on a remarkable journey of transformation. She turned to sex work not out of desperation, but as a conscious choice to reclaim her sexuality and heal her trauma. Her journey led her to discover Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapy, a powerful tool that allowed her to understand and integrate the different parts of herself shaped by her experiences.
