In the latest episode of the 'Stop Child Abuse Now' podcast, Mia McKinney, a survivor and advocate, shares her compelling story of overcoming physical and sexual abuse. Hosted by Carol Levine, the episode delves into Mia's journey from enduring abuse to becoming an empowering voice for other survivors. Mia recounts the harrowing experiences she faced as a child, including poisoning by her mother and the secrecy she maintained until she was 34.

Mia discusses her healing process, which involved pursuing education and ultimately authoring a 12 Step Workbook for Survivors of Sexual Abuse. This workbook aims to provide survivors with a structured path towards healing and recovery. As the CEO and Co-Founder of Advocate Alliance, Mia actively works to support and empower survivors, providing them with the tools needed to reclaim their lives.

The podcast highlights NASCA's mission to address child abuse and trauma by educating the public and offering hope and healing to survivors. Carol emphasizes the importance of breaking the societal taboo surrounding discussions of childhood sexual abuse and showcases NASCA's broad range of support services. Listeners are encouraged to visit NASCA's website to explore the resources available and consider joining the supportive community Mia and Carol discuss.

Mia invites listeners to participate in NASCA's recovery meetings, which focus on sharing experiences and recovery tools rather than adhering strictly to a 12-step program. This episode serves as a beacon of hope, illustrating the resilience and strength of survivors like Mia McKinney, and the critical role advocacy plays in transforming trauma into triumph.
