[TRIGGER WARNING!]
On today's episode, Aisha talks to us about how a long term abusive relationship completely changed her into someone she could not recognise. After another abusive experience, she had to pack up and move countries to help her heal. This was a really insightful conversation and I am grateful to Aisha for sharing her story
