Episode What My Kids Saw the Next Morning Still Haunts Me
I thought I understood what domestic abuse looked like until I heard Erica Muniz’s story.
In this episode of the Rollercoaster Podcast, Erica shares the reality of surviving a 15-year marriage, one that began with control and silence, and escalated. From being isolated from her family to enduring moments that nearly cost her life, her story is confronting, raw, and impossible to ignore.
But this isn’t just about trauma, it’s about faith, resilience, and finding the strength to finally break free.
If you or someone you love is experiencing abuse, this matters.
Watch now and share this with someone who needs to hear it.
