Thank you all for being here to witness the very first episode of This Might Be My Fault.
This podcast came out of the mess, the healing, the accountability, and the silence I kept swallowing just to survive. I built this because I needed a place where my truth could finally sit without being rushed, dismissed, or punished.
People kept telling me, “Write a book. Tell your story.”
But my story has never been a clean line. It’s a whole case file full of moments I stayed too long, things that happened while someone was supposed to be caring for me, and situations I let slide because I didn’t have a stable family structure to fall back on. I kept thinking, If I can just hold on a little longer, get my career together, save enough, find some peace, this will get better.
But the clock kept ticking.
And my spirit kept cracking.
I got tired of calling people “family,” “friends,” and breaking down what was happening to me. And sometimes my sisters-from-another-mother would just stand there with a hand on their hip, giving me real accountability. No fluff. No pity. And I didn’t run from it ,but even that wasn’t enough to make me see the full pattern.
That’s where This Might Be My Fault comes in.
Not as a place to blame myself…
but as a place to investigate myself.
Not “she hurt me” and “I hurt her.”
Not “she did this, I did that.”
I want to understand why I stayed.
Why I tolerated certain things.
Why I froze.
Why I fawned.
Why I thought my silence would keep the peace.
Why I kept pouring into situations that were draining me dry.
And when I finally left, when I really chose myself,
that’s when the games started.
That’s when the secrets came out.
That’s when I realized I was never supposed to find out half of what I learned.
And I know I’m not the only one.
This isn’t just about my ex-wife.
This isn’t just about my mother.
This is about the systems and circumstances that shape us long before we ever meet the people who break us.
It’s about how development wires us for survival.
How some of us learn to disappear inside our own life.
How our strongest traits often grew out of the darkest rooms.
This Might Be My Fault is where I stop running from that truth.
I hope you stay.
I hope you bring your friends and your family.
And if you really want to talk, join the “This Might Be My Fault” group. It’s public for now, but once the first episode airs, it’s going private, because some stories deserve privacy, protection, and people who get it.
These stories aren’t just confessions.
They’re investigations.
They’re the why behind the choices I made, the patterns I repeated, and the silence I thought was loyalty.
And maybe as I’m finding my why…
you’ll start finding yours too.
Let’s begin.
