In this powerful episode of the Ingrid Centurion Podcast, Ingrid sits down with Siomara Henriquez, author of Venus & Trump: A Journey of Resilience and Hope, for an honest conversation about emotional violence, toxic relationships, social pressure, and the difficult journey of reclaiming your voice. Siomara has a natural talent for poetry and writing and she shares a women's story of and personal experience of navigating an emotionally harmful relationship and the gradual impact it had on her confidence, independence, and sense of self. Together, Ingrid and Siomara explore why emotional abuse can be difficult to recognize, the warning signs women should never ignore, and the pressures that can keep someone trapped—including fear, finances, family expectations, culture, and concern about what others may think.
But this conversation is ultimately about transformation. Siomara explains how Venus, a married woman moved from surviving to rebuilding—finding her voice, restoring her confidence, pursuing independence, and eventually leaving her husband. Siomara writes this story to help other women and to demonstrate that a difficult chapter in life does not have to define the rest of your life.
Through her book, Venus & Trump, Siomara turns a painful experience into a message of resilience and hope. She discusses why she chose to tell her story, how much she cried during the process, what writing meant to her, and what she hopes other women will take away from her this story.
This episode is a conversation about courage, self-worth, independence, and choosing yourself. It is a reminder that asking for help is not weakness, that recognizing your own value can be the beginning of change, and that rebuilding your life is possible—even after years of being made to feel that you are not enough and being controlled.
