I Didn’t Know It Was Grooming

from The Manic Candice Podcast

Got something to say to this podcast? Send a voicemail, and you might hear yourself on the next episode! At 16, I had my first job—and my first crush. He was older. He was my boss. I thought I was lucky. I wasn’t. In this episode, I walk you through how I was groomed without realizing it until a decade later. I share how everyday actions—schedules, rides home, “coincidences”—were calculated moves. This is a story about manipulation that hides in plain sight, about trusting your gut, and about the anger that comes when you finally see things clearly. If you’re unsure about a situation from your past, or raising a teen—this is the episode I wish someone made for me. My inbox is open: [email protected] | Twitter: @maniccandice
