Thank you for creating this podcast. I have learned so much. Chell you do a great job interviewing and creating such a safe space. This podcast through so many of its episodes has helped with my healing and challenged me to look at things. I realized that some things I thought were healed really weren’t.
The podcast I never knew I needed. So therapeutic, healing and helpful. 💚
Chell has created a safe and relaxed space that allows people to share personal stories of trauma in order for other people to be able to relate who have had similar experiences. Beyond the Monsters shows that bad things happen to good people, but good people can become better people through their healing process.
Thank you for sharing stories like this. The ones we don’t always get to hear but need to. You’ve done such a beautiful job creating this community and helping to raise awareness around topics that are often dismissed or forgotten. Thank you!
Beyond The Monsters is an amazing show. Chelle and the team are so kind and respectful to each of the guests. They let them tell their stories from their own words. It’s like listening to two friends, talking and having a conversation. The podcast is easy to listen to and education. I definitely would recommend this podcast.
