Together We Heal is for any who suffer from the trauma of Childhood Sexual Abuse. We are here to provide a safe forum for survivors of abuse to share, learn and heal, give direction to those seeking guidance and to expose sexual predators for what they are and their methods of getting into our lives.
One last update before showtime. As I mentioned, the entire show will be dedicated to the topic of Childhood Sexual Abuse. Three survivors of CSA, myself being one of them, will be interviewed on the show LA Talk Live by Lucinda Bassett at 2:00 pm ET, Thursday November 29th. You can listen online at http://latalklive.com/new/truth-be-told
Another one of the survivors being interviewed is a new friend of mine, Patricia Singleton.
You can follow her blog at patriciasingleton.blogspot.com or follow her on twitter @Patriciasinglet – she is an amazing woman who has survived much and is an inspiration to myself and many others.
I know that anyone who takes the time to listen will receive a blessing and some important information on how to keep your children safe from sexual predators, as well as, how to begin the process of healing if you have been a victim of CSA.
Another friend and an incredible advocate for children and survivors, Peppy Bennett, will be doing a live twitter chat during the show at @LegalAdvocateC – you can also follow her personal account @PeppyBennett
If you or someone you know has been affected by CSA, please either tune-in or pass this along to them. We would appreciate hearing what your thoughts are on the show.
In 2006 David took the first step in acknowledging the sexual abuse that was perpetrated against him from the ages of 12 to 15. During those 3 years, the foundation his family had worked so hard to build within him was destroyed by one man, his youth minister. The result was his heart, mind and faith were lost. After having kept this secret for more than 25 years, he was finally able to reveal to his family and friends the reason behind the addiction and self-destruction that at times had him incarcerated, eventually left him destitute and nearly ended his life.
Fortunately he was blessed with amazing friends and a loving family who helped him get the help and therapy he so desperately needed. He was finally able to get clean from the grip of addiction and face the demon of sexual abuse that had clouded his life for so long. Now he and his wife work to aid their fellow survivors through the non-profit they created, Together We Heal.
The mission of Together We Heal is to provide guidance for survivors of childhood sexual abuse, educating parents and all adults through public speaking on matters concerning Childhood Sexual Abuse and giving a safe forum for victims of abuse to share, learn and heal.

One thought on “LA Talk Live Radio Show – November 29th 2 pm ET!!”
David, thank you. Beginning to get a little nervous and a lot excited about the show tomorrow. It is what I do. You inspire me. I know it is harder for a man to come out about sexual abuse than it is for a woman because of the way that society looks at the issue. Men and women coming together and speaking out about child sexual abuse is what is needed to heal our world from this horrific disease. As survivors, we are worth it and so are our children.
