Interview with Kerie Hamilton

from The Determined People Podcast · host John Harrell

From the time she was a little girl, Kerie Hamilton lived a life that, sadly, many people in our world can identify with. Kerie was abused by a horrible monster, her stepfather. He tortured Kerie and her sister in ways that are unthinkable. The girls weren't allowed to tell anyone because "next time will be worse" if they did. A childhood dominated by always being in a "fight or flight" state of mind causes damage that stays with the person for decades, creating the right set of circumstances for others to abuse you.At the encouragement of one of her friends, after her divorce Kerie entered the online dating world. This was a world that she knew nothing about because Kerie was married when the online thing launched. The first guy she "matched" with started giving Kerie everything that she thought was lacking in her life. He showed her lots of love and attention. Then everything turned dark. He hit her, threatened her, and placed tracking devices on her car. He began showing up wherever Kerie was. She didn't think the nightmare would ever end. In our interview, Kerie shares her personal story of surviving childhood abuse. You will learn about how she finally got away from the predator who hurt her as an adult. And you will learn how Kerie embraced psychotherapy to work on herself, a journey that continues today. Kerie is an inspiration. She shows no bitterness or lingering resentment. And she shows remarkable kindness.
