  • Episode 53: The First Time You Said No: Boundaries After Abuse

    Episode 53: The First Time You Said No: Boundaries After Abuse
    Mar 24 2026

    Saying “no” sounds simple… until it isn’t.

    In this episode of Almost Oblivious, Autumn opens up about why boundaries can feel so difficult after experiencing domestic violence. When saying no once came with consequences—arguments, guilt, or even fear—it’s not something your mind and body just forget.

    This conversation dives into what happens after you leave. The lingering habits. The automatic “yes.” The guilt that follows when you finally start choosing yourself.

    Autumn shares personal reflections on learning to pause, rebuilding trust with yourself, and what it really looks like to begin setting boundaries again—one small moment at a time.

    If you’ve ever struggled to say no, questioned your needs, or felt guilty for protecting your peace… this episode is for you.

    Because learning to say no isn’t about pushing people away—
    it’s about finally making space for yourself.

    Episode 52: Stepping Into the Unknown
    Mar 17 2026

    After nearly three months away, Autumn returns to Almost Oblivious to talk about stepping into new seasons of life—even when they feel scary.

    In this personal episode, she reflects on becoming a mother, navigating life after trauma, and the powerful realization that who you have children with matters far more than when you have them.

    Autumn shares thoughts on healing, choosing safe relationships, letting go of old timelines, and learning to move forward even when fear is present.

    This episode is a gentle reminder that growth after abuse is possible—and that sometimes the most beautiful chapters begin with the most uncertain steps.
