Confessions of a Shopaholic: I Wanted to be Pretty Woman

Trigger Warning - This episode briefly touches on sexual abuse. Teresa’s step-dad showered her with gifts from a young age, all of it to keep her quiet about the sexual abuse that went on for years. As she grew up and married, she found herself in a pattern of unhealthy relationships, resentments. Eventually, she would use money to punish the men for their behavior. With the help of Debtors Anonymous, Teresa was able to make amends and change her behavior and patterns. _____ If you or anyone you know is struggling with addiction or depression, we've compiled a list of resources on the Secret Life Website: http://secretlifepodcast.com ______ HOW CAN I SUPPORT THE PODCAST?
