11. Let's Talk: Breaking Silence, Finding Freedom with Tonya Peck
Manage episode 505537246 series 3658194
In this week’s episode of The Hey Rhona Podcast, Tonya shares her journey of finding freedom and purpose by breaking the silence on what she once kept hidden. Her story is a powerful reminder that vulnerability isn’t weakness—it’s a path to healing and can be scary even in places that should feel safe.
We talk about creating safe spaces as leaders, and how shame loses its power when we speak our truth. Tonya reminds us that sharing our story is a gift that creates a safe space for others to find freedom.
If you’ve ever wondered how to step into your own story and stop sitting in silence, here are three ways to start:
- Own it privately. Take time to write it down, pray through it, or reflect in a safe space. Naming what you’ve hidden begins the journey of release.
- Share it safely. Speak with someone you trust—a friend, mentor, or small group. Practicing vulnerability builds confidence.
- Reframe it as a gift. Your story can inspire and heal others. Speaking what was once secret allows connection and hope to flourish.
🌱 Put It Into Practice
Conversations bring clarity, but practice brings change. This week’s small step toward freedom:
- Spend 10 minutes writing one part of your story you’ve kept quiet. End with: “This is part of my story, but it does not define me. This story can dismantle the shame and bring freedom to others when I'm willing to share.”
- Share a small piece of it with a trusted person.
- Reflect on how your story could encourage or free someone else.
Remember, your story matters, your voice carries hope, and you don’t walk this road alone. Keep living with courage and grace.
Cheers to hope + healing,
Rhona
