It is important that you listen to the part 1 of this episode first: Running For Our Lives: The Murder I Designed Before I Could Drive - Episode #82A

In this illuminating conclusion to our two-part series (Episode 82B), trauma specialist Erica Bess expertly analyzes the psychological aftermath of childhood domestic violence exposure revealed in Fatima Bey's harrowing account.

"When your child hears you screaming in the other room, imagine the horror inside that they feel," explains Erica, revealing how children become co-survivors of abuse directed at their caregivers. This episode delves into the cascading traumas following the family's midnight escape—living in a hotel room, constant fear of discovery, and the development of adjustment disorder and PTSD that created hypervigilance lasting for decades.

Erica provides professional insight into one of the most chilling revelations from part one: the children's plan to eliminate their mother's abuser out of desperation. This powerful discussion illuminates how violence can perpetuate when children feel powerless to protect those they love.

Yet amidst this darkness emerges an inspiring transformation—how all three sisters channeled their trauma into healing professions. This episode offers profound understanding for survivors, parents concerned about household conflict's impact on children, and those supporting domestic violence survivors. Join us to explore trauma's enduring effects and the remarkable human capacity to transform pain into purpose.
