ABOUT THIS EPISODE:
In this gripping episode of Surviving-ish, David sits down with USA Today bestselling author and memoirist Andrea. Prepare to be moved as Andrea opens up about the horrific grooming and abuse she suffered from her father starting at just four and a half years old—and the shocking "hysterical blindness" her mother suffered the moment she found out.
From a sudden mental health crisis at age 33 that forced her into inpatient treatment, to a literal rain-soaked book launch that couldn't stop her memoir from going viral during the MeToo movement, Andrea’s story is the ultimate blueprint for turning pain into power.
Today, she is a powerhouse advocate working with the UCLA Rape Treatment Center and RAINN, proving that you can reclaim your inner child, find joy through movement, and truly thrive after the unthinkable.
