Send me a DM here (it doesn't let me respond), OR email me: [email protected] we come together with heavy hearts but deep respect to honor the life and legacy of beloved survivor Madison Cupps, who also went by Madison Clares. Madison was a multi-generational survivor, a passionate advocate for child and animal rescue, a technology professional, and an aspiring singer-songwriter who dreamed of using her music to empower fellow survivors and create positive change.Though Madison is no longer with us, her courage in sharing her story continues to resonate deeply. She was a survivor who lived through unfortunate events in her life—experiences that shaped her but did not define her. She spoke openly about her journey, the challenges she faced growing up in a complex family environment, and her unwavering determination to heal, seek justice, and help others. Her path was marked by profound resilience, deep faith, and a fierce commitment to protecting the vulnerable, especially children. Madison hoped her testimony would encourage other survivors to come forward, raise awareness about difficult realities many endure, and push for meaningful reforms in how systems respond to those in need.Today, we are here to speak truth into Madison’s testimony and to honor the brave woman she was. We refuse to let her voice be silenced. Instead, we lift it up as a beacon of strength and hope. I'm honored to welcome another survivor, former podcast guest, and one of my favorite humans and friends, Kibbi Linga, who joins us to remember Madison, reflect on her impact, and shine light on the themes of survival, advocacy, and healing that we all knew through Madison. Together, we'll celebrate and share the truth about Madison’s life - through her words and ours - someone who overcame profound hardship, pursued her passions in music and technology, and worked tirelessly as a voice for the voiceless.This episode is a tribute to Madison’s strength, her light, and the important torch she carried. We honor her by continuing the work she started - speaking truth, supporting survivors, and fighting for a world where no child has to endure what she did. Madison’s mission lives on through every voice that refuses to stay silent, every advocate who shows up, and every step we take toward justice and healing. Today, with Kibbi, we carry that torch forward and commit to finishing the fight she began with such courage.Support the show
